Caption:
This late 1960s photograph, was captured inside a relief camp during the Nigerian-Biafran war, and depicted a Red Cross truck that was fueling up, before distributing its load of food to the camp staffers. In 1967, the National Communicable Disease Center (NCDC) was asked to assist the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in its disease control and death prevention efforts during the Nigerian-Biafran conflict. A large number of these relief camps were established for nutrition assessment, and feeding operations for the local villagers around the war zone.
