CRESTVIEW — When Operation Christmas Child participants in Crestview packed up boxes for shipping back to OCC headquarters in early December, some members of the 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne) showed up to lend a hand.

Local OCC spokesperson Patty Hill said the Northwest Florida area was able to surpass its goal of 10,000 boxes shipped to the Samaritan’s Purse organization for worldwide distribution.
