A patient has his tonsils

removed Wednesday by a team of US Army surgeons working with Cambodian

surgeons at the Children's Surgical Center in Phnom Penh. The American

medical team is in Cambodia for nine days for the Sight, Sound and

Smile Medical Mission, which provides free operations for poor

Cambodians suffering from sight and hearing loss, head and neck tumours

or facial disabilities such as cleft palates.
