In its 68th year, the Alaska National Guard's annual community outreach program, Operation Santa Claus, continues to bring the magic of the season to the remote communities of Fort Yukon, Golovin, Koyuk, and Tuluksak. In partnership with the Salvation Army, the program delivered gifts and tidings of good cheer to approximately 560 children. The video highlights the annual Operation Santa Claus, a collaborative effort between The Salvation Army and the Alaska National Guard, spreading joy to communities across Alaska during the Christmas season. The Salvation Army collects, wraps, and packs gifts for children, and the Alaska National Guard plays a crucial role in transportation, logistics, and planning. Video by Alaska National Guard public affairs 1st Lt. Balinda O'Neal, Staff Sgt. Katie Mazos-Vega, Staff Sgt. Seth LaCount and Mr. Dana Rosso.
