    (From Left) Sgt. Sheldon Curry, from Montgomery, Alabama, Lance Cpl. Gentres Anderson, from Pensacola, Florida, and Lance Cpl. Aaron Campbell, from Conyers, Georgia, infantry Marines with the Montgomery Marine Corps reserve unit, stand watch over the donation bins during the unit's Toys for Tots drive Dec. 13, 2014, in Montgomery, Alabama. The program found its roots in 1947 Los Angeles when Marine Maj. Bill Hendricks, a reservist, collected more than 5,000 toys to help his community. The Marine Corps formally adopted the program the very next year, and it has continued to this day.
