Great spoof this.


Serious Note. USAF used to run an "Operation Christmas Drop" where they would put out a DCI (or what ever they were called in the US) in the months leading to Christmas, calling for units to make surplus airdrop kit available. they would then do a round robin dropping gifts to remote islands. I think mainly in the Far East (Philippians ??)


Not sure if this still operates. I think it was the guys at Ft Lee who co-ordinated it.


For those who cared to open the link. the smart ones will recognise the load as weapons containers. Lots of EDM. Note one of the containers poking out through the side of the harness! perhaps the containers were full of sausage!!
