A Christmas Drop story

Bruce Best, University of Guam researcher, communicates with a 36th Airlift Squadron C-130H Hercules aircrew during Operation Christmas Drop, at the University of Guam, Guam, Dec. 7, 2016. Every December, C-130H Hercules aircrews from Yokota head to Andersen Air Force Base to execute low-cost, low-altitude humanitarian airdrops to islanders throughout the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas, Federated States of Micronesia and Republic of Palau. Best is the line of communication between the islands and the aircrews, ensuring that each LCLA arrives safely at its drop zone. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Elizabeth Baker)
