Vaccine shots leave mark on Rio Grande Valley residents
Texas Army National Guard Spc. Stephanie Cardenas, an Emergency Medical Technician for Joint Forces Headquarters of San Antonio, gives a vaccination shot to four-year-old Jeremiah Burkett while he is comforted by his mother. The boy will be ready for pre-kindergarten this fall, at least as far as immunizations go, thanks to the free vaccinations offered in Brownsville during Operation Lone Star.
