The USO at Ramstein hosted Santa a little early this year!
Santa’s arrival at the Ramstein PAX Terminal in November helped families snap their photos with plenty of time to create Christmas cards to send to family and friends in the States.
Santa’s visit through the PAX terminal at Ramstein gave many families the chance to meet him and get their photos taken at the USO. (Isaiah Walton Photozay)
The USO provided some yummy hot chocolate and cookies. There were also fun games and crafts for everyone to work on after saying hi to Santa.
We saw lots of cute Christmas sweaters, beautiful dresses and many dapper dudes. You know how to dress to impress St. Nick!
Even if you’ve already met Santa, be sure to send him your Christmas letter. (Isaiah Walton Photozay)
