Dr. (Maj.) Elaina Wild, 379th Expeditionary Medical Group chief medical officer, takes a picture with mothers and their newborn babies at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar. The 379th EMDG was not originally postured for neo-natal care, so medical members had to adapt in order to provide care for evacuating mothers in labor and their newborn babies. Since Al Udeid AB became the main stopover location for qualified evacuees from Afghanistan on Aug. 14, 2021, members assigned to the 379th EMDG helped deliver nine babies.
