    Santa (a Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak aviator) waves to children while passing over the remote Alaskan village of Chiniak, Dec. 12, 2020.

    This year, those involved in the deliveries had to improvise and find a way to continue spreading cheer while keeping Santa, the villagers and the aircrews safe during a worldwide pandemic; practicing social distancing was the key to protecting and maintaining the health of the villagers.
