Memo, Maliana District, East Timor. 17 November 1999. A crowd of Timorese, mostly women and children, gathered around Captain Smith (wearing a red cross armband), a female medic, part of the International Force for East Timor (Interfet), as she runs a medical clinic from the back of an Australian Army Land Rover in the village of Memo. She is giving a small child a purple snake lollie (confectionery).
