Several nurses at Chandler Regional Hospital are playing Santa Claus to hundreds of U.S. Marines they've never met.
The nurses recently stuffed more than 70 holiday stockings and wrapped dozens of gifts, shipping them off to troops in Iraq, the latest in a series of exchanges that began this summer.
