Berlin Airlift
"Operation Vittles" has presented many changing scenes at
Rhein/Main Air Force Base, Frankfurt, Germany. One
example is found in the
dispensary where navy men
help At medics carry the
workload of medical
needs. Major Paul E. Wright,
61st Station Medical Group
Surgeon, consults with Lt.
(j.g.) Richard D. Naumann,
Navy doctor, in a treatment
room at the Dispensary.

Rhein/Main Air Force Base, Frankfurt, Germany - As important to the U. S.
Air Forces in Europe as any of the
Berlin airlift's technical problems is the health of the airmen who fly
supplies into the blockaded city.
In the Atterbury-Betts Area a small
auxiliary dental clinic has been
established. Here a German dental
hygienist cleans teeth and administers some emergency treatment.
