Stan Brock, 82, intrepid provider of health care in remote areas, dies

Stan Brock, a former British cowboy and co-host of the long-running television show “Wild Kingdom,” liked to tell of an exchange he had with the sixth man to walk on the moon.

He was recounting to that astronaut, Edgar D. Mitchell, what had prompted him to quit his job, sell all his belongings and found a volunteer mobile medical service for uninsured Americans and poor people in underdeveloped countries.
