Arctic Village 2006

Santa and his elves board the C-130 Hercules after making a stop in Arctic Village, Alaska. The 517th Airlift Squadron from Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska has dropped off more than $8,500 worth of toys and food for the people of the village. Santa made his 40th annual trip to Arctic Village (north of Fort Yukon, Alaska) on Dec 11. Due to a change in aircraft at Elmendorf, this will be the last trip that the 517th Airlift Squadron will make to Arctic Village. The Alaska Air National Guard will add Arctic Village to its short list of destinations during Operation Santa. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Rhiannon Willard)
