The legends of St. Nicholas

U.S. Air Force Maj. Paul Amaliri, 39th Air Base Wing deputy wing chaplain, celebrates a Catholic service in honor of St. Nicholas, whose statue stands on the altar Dec. 6, 2019, at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey. St. Nicholas served as a Christian bishop within the borders of modern-day Turkey and is the historical inspiration for the mythical Christmas figure, Santa Claus. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
