About	While documenting humanitarian relief efforts I turned away from the crowd and saw this child. It broke my heart. Caption follows: A physically disabled Afghan boy sits alone watching other children play during a humanitarian assistance mission conducted by soldiers of the Jalalabad Provincial Reconstruction Team (PRT), November 16, 2004. The aid mission helped nearly 100 displaced families with everything from tools and blankets to school supplies.

Great dramatic image and story..as if it forces us to reasses and change the view of humanitarian relief efforts asap..

Extremely moving imagery. We almost always seem to forget some while patting ourselves on the back for our humanitarian efforts. This is a good example.
