Eglin Air Force Base Christmas Tree

Christmas tree lighting festivities recently were held at Eglin Air Force Base. Brig. Gen. Christopher Azzano, 96th Test Wing commander, addressed Eglin’s families during the Christmas tree lighting festivities at the West Gate Chapel.

Azzano asked that attendees remember the service men and women deployed in harm’s way this holiday season.

Following the lighting of the tree, Santa Claus arrived by fire truck to listen to the children’s Christmas wishes during the Chapel’s holiday reception.
