The number rang at NORAD and the airman who answered played along. It became a tradition. Now I'd bet there's a whole "Santa Tracking" committee.

I do believe they are better at tracking this imaginary elf than any thing else they are tasked with doing. Sleep well tonight, the Air Force will protect you.

NORAD is there to warn us of nuclear missile attacks. What if we are attacked when we are tracking Santa instead of ICBMs?
