NORAD's operations center, Colorado Springs, around 1961.
Sixty years ago this

continues to this day – NORAD's annual tracking of St. Nick on his worldwide
rounds, Michael Beschloss reports on nytimes.com.
For more, including how even President Kennedy reassured a Michigan girl during the Cold War that all was well at the North Pole, according to Beschloss: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/20/upshot/how-santa-claus-ended-up-on-us-militarys-radar.html?smid=nytcore-iphone-share&smprod=nytcore-iphone
