A touch of holiday spirit aboard Camp Leatherneck

Marines at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, keep the spark of Christmas alive by decorating trees and their workplaces with lights and ornaments. Marines here work through the Christmas holiday, but the decorations help boost morale of the service members on base. "I simply love it," said Staff Sgt. Freeman J. Lowe, motor transport chief with detachment 1, Regimental Combat Team 2. "It's a beautiful reminder of the traditions of holiday and family events that we fight to keep free!"
