Operation Santa Claus is the AKNG’s yearly community outreach program that provides gifts and Christmas cheer to children in remote communities across the state. The Alaska National Guard strives to make a positive impact in communities across the state, while simultaneously conducting training to support the governor and fellow Alaskans for domestic operations. This year’s program will bring the joy of the holiday season to the remote communities of Fort Yukon, Golovin, Koyuk, and Tuluksak. (Alaska National Guard video by Staff Sgt. Katie Mazos-Vega)
