Bruce Best, known at Operation Christmas Drop as “Brother Bruce,” shakes hands with U.S. Air Force Col. Richard McElhaney, 374th Airlift Wing commander, during the OCD 25 push ceremony at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, Dec. 8, 2025. OCD is the Department of War’s longest-running humanitarian airlift mission. It began in 1952 after a U.S. Air Force B-29 crew flying near Guam spotted islanders waving from below and dropped supplies as an act of goodwill.
