Cannon Air Force Base, N.M., -- The Pecos Trail Dining Facility was bursting with cheer during the Thanksgiving meal at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M., on Nov. 22.

The dining facility staff worked with 27th Special Operations Wing leadership to create a memorable experience for the Airmen living in the dormitories who were unable to be with their families for the holiday.

A wonderful meal was prepared and then served by wing leadership, who took time out of their holiday break to give back to the Airmen.
