Maj. Jamie Swartz, an ear nose and throat surgeon, and her assistant, Staff Sgt. Robyn Wilcox, perform an open septorhinoplasty on a patient in the Craig Joint Theater Hospital on Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, July 22, 2013. The procedure performed separated his nose into a left and right side straightening the septum and bones, reducing the obstruction and allowing the patient to breathe better. The patient had problems breathing, headaches and pressure because of an obstruction inside his nose. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Stephenie Wade)
