FORT HOOD III Corps headquarters, 1st Cavalry headquarters battalion and Darnall Army Medical Center are twinkling with Christmas lights, dotted with multiple trees throughout the buildings, and stockings are hung on all office doors. The Copperas Cove High School JROTC cadets played the roles of elves coming in to decorate the buildings as part of their Operation: Duty Calls to Deck the Halls service initiative.
CCHS JROTC Battalion Executive Officer Sydney Montana said the cadets gathered donations of gently used Christmas decorations for several weeks to help provide a holiday experience for service members.
