An Afghan child tries on donated shoes at a humanitarian assistance visit here. The clothes, shoes, coats and blankets brought to the refugee camp were donations made to Operation Care by American citizens. Donations increased after a 5-year-old boy was treated at the Craig Theater Hospital who had no shoes. The doctor caring for him, Lt. Col. Thomas Knolmayer, called home and asked his wife to send a pair of his son's shoes for the child, sparring a rash of shoe donations. Col. Knolmayer is a general surgeon deployed here from Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska.
