âOne of the privileges we have in the National Guard is to serve the communities we share,â Maj.Lindsay Pigeon, executive director, 186th Brigade Support Battalion, 86th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Mountain) said in a statement. “This is a great opportunity to do so while also bringing some holiday cheer to our friends and neighbors across the state.”
Operation Santa’s Convoy supports Governor Phil Scott’s VT Lights the Way initiative and will give children the opportunity to see Santa safely during COVID-19.
The convoy will consist of a set of different military vehicles, including a tow truck, military ambulance, forklift, 2 ton trucks and a variety of other vehicles supplied primarily by the 186th BSB.
