Brig. Gen. Robert R. Ruark, 48, Salem, Ohio, commanding general, 1st Marine Logistics Group, talks to one of Kabani?s local leaders here Dec. 20. Moments later, both men cut the ribbon on a new medical clinic here. The new Kabani Medical Clinic provides a venue for future medical engagements and Iraqi doctors to use to treat Kabani?s population. Kabani, a small village just east of Camp Taqaddum, used to host civil affairs engagements and visits from their own Iraqi medical practitioners in whatever structures they had available. Through a combination of diplomatic action from Iraqi and Coalition Forces, the village now has a necessary venue for health care. The combined medical engagement was one of many 1st MLG has performed since taking over for 2nd MLG in February of this year. The new clinic in Kabani marks the first of many recent steps toward improvements of Iraqi infrastructure.
