Operation Toy Drop is a family-friendly event; spouses, children and friends gathered at a viewing area on the Sicily Drop Zone, Fort Bragg, N.C., Dec. 10 to watch their loved ones earn their set of international airborne wings. Snacks and games kept the kids entertained in between jumps. Hosted by the U.S. Army Civil Affairs & Psychological Operations Command (Airborne), the 14th Annual Randy Oler Memorial Operation Toy Drop is the largest combined airborne operation in the world. A paratrooper donated a new, unwrapped toy in exchange for a lottery ticket for the chance of jumping with allied jumpmasters, earning themselves foreign jump wings. (U.S. Army photo by Pvt.
