Fort Carson soldiers wearing camouflage along with reindeer horns and Santa hats turned the heads of morning commuters in Colorado Springs. 500 soldiers with 50 family members marched through the center of the city for "Operation Happy Holidays".

They march with backpacks full of items like coats and food they have gathered to donate. Their destination is the Marion House Soup Kitchen where anyone from the community can pick out anything they want from the donated items.

The march is impressive. See it tonight on News 5.
