US Troops Care for Iraqi Baby Rescued from Garbage

The nine-month-old’s parents were both killed and she was found in a pile of garbage. Staff at the 28th Combat Support Hospital have been scheduling appointments for U.S. and other foreign television crews to visit the Fatima in the hope that her story will rescue her from an uncertain future. “She is a baby — she is happiness in a bad place,” said Lieutenant Beth Brauchli, the hospital’s acting public affairs officer.
