Army Medics Treat Civilians In Sadr City

BAGHDAD — Shortly before 1 a.m. Thursday, there was a desperate wail at the back gate of B Company’s compound in Sadr City. A woman had been badly burned and her relatives were begging for help.

With little in the way of emergency services and travel hampered by blocked streets, nightly curfews and sporadic firefights, a steady trickle of Iraqis has been turning to the American soldiers here for medical care.


Good story, especially for the New York Times. Maybe, finally, they're deciding to be on the side of their own country when reporting.
