Graphic Illustration: U.S. Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Stanley Maculewicz, a corpsman assigned to the Afghan National Army 215th Corps Mobile Strike Force Security Force Assistance Advisor Team (SFAAT), and Afghan National Army Staff Sgt. Abdul Malik are reunited at Camp Shorabak in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, June 15, 2013. During recent operations in Sangin, Afghanistan, Malik and a fellow ANA medic were recovering a fallen soldier when Malik was hit by enemy fire. Maculewicz rushed to his aid to treat his injury and ensure he was safely evacuated from the battlefield. Maculewicz didn’t expect to see Malik again, but the two reunited when Malik sought out the corpsman to thank him for saving his life. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Bryan Peterson)
