Departing from the North Pole while we were all sleeping, Santa Claus' journey around the world bringing presents and Christmas cheer for all of the good boys and girls who believe is underway.
Santa Claus has checked his list and knows who’s been naughty and nice this year.
Departing from the North Pole while we were all sleeping, his journey around the world bringing presents and Christmas cheer for all of the good boys and girls who believe is underway.
While Canadian children have to patiently wait for him to drop down their chimney, the flight crew at the North American Aerospace Defence Command (Norad) out of North Bay, Ont. also waits for him to arrive.
“For us, it’s a very monumental task,” said United States Air Force MSgt. Troy Hall, an operations superintendent at the base.
The flight crew, 21 Aerospace Control and Warning Squadron, nicknamed ‘Voodoo Flight’ at 22 Wing/Canadian Forces Base is tasked with a delicate holiday mission and tradition: to identify Santa, his sleigh and trusty reindeer when they fly over the country.
