KABUL, Afghanistan - Afghan Commandos of the 207th Corps, assisted by coalition forces, visited a newly-reconstructed comprehensive health center in Shindand district, Herat province, June 28.
The Afghan commandos also distributed medicine and other supplies for the new facility in preparation for an upcoming opening celebration. The ribbon will be cut and the doors opened for business upon the arrival and installation of the final medical equipment.
The comprehensive health center is in the greater Azizabad village and replaces an older, poorly-equipped basic health clinic. The facility will dramatically increase the medical support available to the people of Azizabad, who have long been without proper medical care.
