Summary
181126-A-UH336-1034 RIOHACHA, Colombia (Nov. 26, 2018) Cmdr. Jack Stansbury, from Morgan City, La., explains treatment options and medicine prescription to a patient at one of two medical sites. The USNS Comfort (T-AH 20) is on an 11-week medical support mission to Central and South America as part of U.S. Southern Command’s Enduring Promise initiative. Working with health and government partners in Ecuador, Peru, Colombia and Honduras, the embarked medical team will provide care on board and at land-based medical sites, helping to relieve pressure on national medical systems caused partly by an increase in cross-border migrants. The deployment reflects the United States’ enduring promise of friendship, partnership and solidarity with the Americas. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Joseph DeLuco/ Released)
