Christmas and Our Troops

Nhon Cho, South Vietnam, December 21, 1968: Dispensing with the normal sleigh, Santa Claus taxis along the airstrip in an artistically-modified C7 Caribou cargo plane as he arrives to bring gifts to Detachment 35, B Company, 5th Special Forces Group. The Air Force's 483rd Tactical Aircraft Wing at Cam Ranh Bay decorated seven of the planes for use in Christmas visits to the troops in the field.

Trace Adkins performs for the men and women serving our country. I love what he says about our military in this video.

Country musicians have been at the forefront of supporting and entertaining our troops and their families. These entertainers represent middle America and our love of our service people.

Tom, they really do, I wish more would join in and do this. Some only visit troops at bases here at home others go all out and go right to the deployed which is soooo important. Trace is one that has done both and often.
