Envision Networks' "The 100 Greatest Christmas Hits of All Time with Wink Martindale" is partnering with the American Forces Network (AFN) to bring the Yuletide ten-hour radio special to the brave men and women of the American forces stationed around the world. "I'm delighted to know that our 'Christmas Countdown' will be heard by our servicemen and women around the world," said Martindale (pictured). "To provide a 'musical touch of home' is very special to me."

"It will be a very merry Christmas again this year for our U.S. military serving overseas as they listen to The 100 Greatest Christmas Hits of All Time with Wink Martindale special on AFN Radio," added American Forces Network Radio Director Scott E. Stover. "We're grateful for Envision Networks' continued partnership with us as we "serve those that serve" so far from home during the holidays."

The special will reach more than 400,000 American service men and women, Department of Defense civilians and their families overseas this holiday season. The broadcast will also be heard at the American Embassies and Consulates in 175 countries and 200 U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Navy's Military Sealift Command ships at sea. Last year's show was also carried by AFN.
