A South Vietnamese infant is being examined by Hospitalman First Class Harry Sullivan from Marine Air Group (MAG)-13's Medical Section at Chu Lai. The baby, less than an hour old, was born shortly before a medical team visited the village of An Ton on a MEDCAP mission. Plans have been made to relocate the maternity ward to a better location and convert the current building into a dispensary for the villagers.
