Marines on snowmobiles helped Santa this month while delivering toys to boys and girls in Alaska’s Arctic.
Marines flew to Kotzebue, which is 549 miles northwest of Anchorage and 26 miles above the Arctic Circle, on a KC-130 operated by the Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 152 based in Okinawa, Japan.
From there, they rode commercial flights and snowmobiles to get toys to 2,500 children in 11 villages, the Juneau Empire reported.

America's military continues to show the world how humane and dedicated we are. A prime example for others to note, and hopefully partake!
