Trip to the Market

Trash everywhere.

More guns.

In Iraq women can be uncovered on their wedding day. There were tons of stores devoted to the dream of the 80's wedding.

The Pediatric "ICU"

Pt on by-pass. Closing the chest.

My first patient.

Day 1

The area between Basura and Nasiriyah is where most of the Gulf War took place.

100's of Iraqi vehicles gathered and set on fire by US troops at the end of the gulf war

If you look closely, you can see that there are the leftovers from 2 other towers that have been bombed down.

The American soldiers are pretty much gone, but the infrastructure still exists. We went through about 20 traffic stops like this one on the way from Basura to Nasiriyah.

Everywhere there are guys with guns, smoking, and doing little else.

The lady told me, "You just walk to the end of this hall, then turn right, then walk to the end of that hall, then turn left, then take the stairs.....

 Some things never change.

Shavers? In the women's bathroom? For mustaches?
