Some US Air Force medics in Afghanistan, working with the Panjshir Provincial Reconstruction Team recently employed their health care skills—along with interpreters and other support personnel—among some passing Nomads. The medics, operating as the PRT’s medical civic action program, or MEDCAP, noticed the Kuchi people on their spring migration to the high country for the summer.
