Summary
Maj. Zach Miller, a pilot with 1st Battalion, 207th Aviation Regiment, Alaska Army National Guard, unloads gifts from a CH-47 Chinook helicopter in Nanwalek, Alaska during Operation Santa Claus, Dec. 11. Operation Santa Claus is an Alaska National Guard annual community outreach program that provides Christmas gifts, books, school supplies and stocking stuffers to children in rural Alaskan communities. This year marks the 65th year of the program, which began in 1956 after the village of St. Mary's experienced a year of hardship and the Alaska Air National Guard flew in gifts and supplies donated by the local community. The Alaska National Guard was able to continue the tradition this year and safely provide gifts despite COVID-19. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Edward Eagerton/Released)
