Blackanthem Military News FORWARD OPERATING BASE WARHORSE, BAQUBAH, Iraq - An Iraqi child was treated by U.S. forces Sept. 20, after the boy was injured by small arms fire from an unknown source in Little Biwaniyah, Diyala province.
Company A, 1st Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment, was conducting a counter-indirect fire patrol when Soldiers heard approximately five rounds impact the road. U.S. forces did not identify a source and did not return fire.
Soldiers discovered the young boy by the side of the road, bleeding from wounds to his upper right shoulder and left pelvis. A U.S. medic dismounted the Stryker vehicle to treat the child.
Once the child was stabilized, the boy and his father were taken to a medical center at Forward Operating Base Warhorse.
The child's life-threatening injuries made it necessary to transport him by helicopter to the U.S. hospital at Joint Base Balad.
