Navy Lt. Benjamin D. Wind, the battalion surgeon with 3rd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, Regimental Combat Team, shows his photos to Amenah Al'a Thabit at her home in Haditha, Iraq, June 20. Marines with the battalion escorted Wind to check on how Amenah was doing after having surgery in January at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., to correct a congenital heart condition. The success of Amenah's case opened the doors for more children in the area to receive medical treatment with the help of Coalition forces and the local Iraqi government. Since her case, two more children have traveled out of Iraq to have surgery for the same condition.::r::::n::
