What does it take to deliver holiday gifts to and from the North Pole — the one in Alaska, at least? About 1 in 5 Americans live in rural areas, but Alaska is unique. For some communities, delivery can only come by air. @krisvancleave shows how shipping companies get the job done.
Thanks for stopping by our Eckington Place station in Washington, D.C. @nbcwashington so we could show how hard our team is working this holiday season! We hope you enjoyed your inside look at how our network is built to deliver all the way up to Christmas Eve. nbcwashington.com/news/local…
