U.S. Air Force video created for Operation Christmas Drop 2023.

Operation Christmas Drop (OCD) is an annual humanitarian mission that delivers essential supplies, such as non-perishable food, fishing supplies, schoolbooks, and holiday toys to remote communities in the Pacific, including the Federated States of Micronesia and Republic of Palau.

This mission dates back to 1952 and is a collaborative effort between air forces from the U.S., Japan, the Republic of Korea, Canada, Australia, and the Philippines. It has become an annual tradition for those who organize and participate in the execution of the mission, and a beacon of goodwill for the communities that it extends to.
