Summary
PATROL BASE BARIOLAI, Helmand province, Islamic Republic of Afghanistan - Seaman Justin Schneider Jr., a corpsman for Company C, 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, assesses the medical health of an Afghan boy during a patrol in Sangin May 22. Schneider is a native of Kapolei, Hawaii, and a 2009 graduate of Kapolei High School. “As soon as I told him I was a doctor he pointed at his throat,” said Schneider. Company C operates in an area of Sangin known as “the fishtank.” The area is near the green zone and Route 611 but lacks all of the plush green fields the Helmand River irrigates.
