Consult your combat medic today....

I was surprised today when one of my soldiers showed me this little shiner. He is now one of only a few documented cases of Leishmaniasis here on FOB snakey. (Ignore my radio antenna pointing at his elbow.) He's gonna have a really tough looking scar from this war. I think he'll have to lie to the patrons at the VFW about his ultra tough bug bite scar.

For those who are curious... I did a little looking around and found this text on the subject.
