Operation Christmas Drop 2016

Operation Christmas Drop 2016 poster Art.

Operation Christmas Drop – US Air Force’s longest running Humanitarian Mission that helps out over 56 islands in the Marianas (Pacific).  Last year they delivered over 41,000 lbs of goods across all of the islands. This year marks the 65th annual Operation Christmas Drop!

Operation Christmas Drop is a tradition that serves as a training mission for the U.S. Air Force which started in 1952. For more than 60 years, American Airmen have flown over tiny islands in Micronesia around Christmas, dropping donated goods to help more than 30,000 islanders. It has since become the longest running U.S. DoD mission in full operation, and the longest running humanitarian airlift in the world.
