Bittersweet - Military families coping with separation
Tech. Sgt. Zachary Payne, 389th Aircraft Maintenance Unit weapons expeditor, watches his son and daughter decorate their family Christmas tree in Mountain Home, Idaho, Dec. 5, 2015. Payne’s wife is currently deployed, so the family sent her a tree of her own to decorate while she's away. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Jessica H. Evans/RELEASED)
