CORINTO, Nicaragua (NNS) -- With a firm handshake and a warm smile, Mayor Ernesto Méndez Zeledón of Corinto, welcomed U.S. Navy hospital ship USNS Comfort (T-AH 20) mission commander Capt. Bob Kapcio during a short ceremony at the town’s cultural center July 19.

The ceremony was held as a kick off to Comfort’s humanitarian assistance operations in and around Corinto, during which the ship’s crew will provide no-cost medical services to the people of the western hemisphere’s second poorest country.

Comfort is conducting operations at three locations in Nicaragua: Corinto Jose Shendell Hospital, la Rancheria Clinic and the El Realejo Health Center.

The sites are offering adult and pediatric primary care, dentistry, optometry, immunizations, and prescription services. U.S. Navy Seabees from Construction and Maintenance Battalion Unit 202 are also making repairs to sites in the Corinto area.

Comfort is currently deployed as part of the U.S. Southern Command’s Partnership for the America’s initiative, an ongoing training and readiness operation designed to strengthen regional partnerships and improve multinational interoperability.

“Our idea when we came here was not only to give medical care, but also partner with host nation health care professionals and deliver care together,” said Boynton. “We hope to learn something from them and have something to teach to them. We have similar interests; we are united. As we say here, ‘estamos unidos.’”

The silence is so deafening from the Mainstream Media that you can hear a mouse thinking about his cheese from three miles away.

God Bless America. We try to do good. . .we really do. Hey, what's Paris and Lindsay up to?
