- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-32004 MISSION DOCTOR CITED BY JAYCEES TULSA, Okla. -- Dr. Daniel E. Fountain, 34, an American Baptist medical missionary in the Congo, was cited as one of the Ten Outstanding Young Men of 1964 by the U. S. Junior Chamber of Commerce in Tulsa. He is shown removing an arrow from the back of a Congolese Army soldier in Vanga who had been ambushed by rebels. Vanga, largest Protestant mission station in the Congo, is located in the Kwilu Province, where rebels have been active for about a year. However, they have not penetrated the area surrounding the mission. Dr. Fountain, son of a Baptist minister, is now in the U.S. where he is studying eye surgery at Willis Eye Hospital, Philadelphia.
