KUNSAN AIR BASE, Republic of Korea -- The 7th Air Force and Air Forces Korea commander visited with Airmen here Dec. 5 and 6 delivering Christmas cards, cookies and seasonal joy and cheer.

Lt. Gen. Jeffery Remington came to Kunsan and other bases in his command to distribute more than 80,000 cookies to Airmen serving in Korea.

The cookies were made by a spouses group from Osan Air Base. Though Kunsan is a remote tour far from family back home, the general's visit reassured Airmen here of their importance to the peninsula and set a tone of family and unit morale.
