Chief of the Indian Army GI Helps Kurdish Village
Sgt. Julian Smith, known as the Chief, tended to Kurdish villagers near an Iranian rest camp. He treated trachoma with argyrol and mercuric acid, cured eye infections, and aided a girl with leg scalding using tannic acid and sulfa powder. He also advised and comforted the villagers and donated fruit juice and aspirin to a feverish child.
