A special gift will return to a Vandenberg airman for the holidays.
Staff Sergeant Jason Riggs will receive his great uncle's lost dog tags from World War II.
They were found 5,500 miles away in France.
A French bed and breakfast owner received the tags from a friend who found them in an attic.
After a two year search, they're being returned to Staff Sgt. Riggs on behalf of the French people during a ceremony at Vandenberg.
