    Sgt. Caleb Henry, Alaska National Guard UH-60 Black Hawk Crew Chief, serves as an elf to deliver packages as a part of the 65th annual tradition of Operation Santa Claus. The Alaska National Guard brings joy to remote Alaskan villages delivering gifts to Stevens Village, Birch Creek and Nanwalek. The Alaska National Guard UH-60 aircrew flew out of Fairbanks, Alaska, continuing the tradition and safely provided gifts despite COVID-19. The tradition started in 1956 after spring floods and has continued to serve Alaska rural communities. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sgt. Julie Avey)
