Hello everyone,
Thanks again to everyone. I'm making a suggestion here and also not to start another thread, we'll just update this one as the months go by! So, here it is. If you choose to send something out on your own, perfectly cool! I think we should take turns for those of us sending things that contribute to it, that way the cost is not just up to one person to do so and or also chip in on the cost. I'll put the next package together around the first week of December, there are a few meets and cruises between now and then to get to him and small X-mas items as well. I have something up my sleeve that we can do for the next one How does that sound??

You weren't kidding when you said it takes a month. I can't even track this one. I ship to Iraq and Afghanistan almost every day from work and have never seen them take this long. Hope he gets it soon, I shipped it on the 3rd. Hope all is well with Luis!

Luis called on Sunday 12/5 and again this morning. He sounded better than the call a month ago. He said that for the most part everything is fine, hes okay and healthy. This time he called a couple more times than usual so that was good. He misses all of you guys and really wants to see you guys (not only your cars) and he hopes all of you are doing great. He wishes you all Happy Holidays, that you guys have good times. He received all our packages so he was happy and so were some of his buddies cause he shared with them
Ill update on him nexxt time he calls -amberly |

CPL. Luis Espindola
Received a letter from Luis today and he asked that I tell the Camaro5 family hello from him and Cabrera thank you for the pictures. He said he shared the contents of the package with everyone except for the pictures and magazines. He isn't letting go of those. Luis is very grateful for pictures of Camaro's, pictures of Camaro5 meets and pictures from home. He said he told the Marines that we were more than a car club, we were a family and they thought that was cheesy LOL. He should be home in late April or early May which means he is going to miss Camaro Fest II unfortunatly.
I plan on sending another package just after Christmas if anyone has any pictures they want to send to him you can e-mail them to me at mckernan.laura@gmail.com and I will print them and send them in the package. Most of us can't imagine what they are enduring over there or what it's like. Below are a couple of pictures that a friend shared from his recent tour in Afghanistan. Even these pictures don't give you the real feel of it, but it does show what it looks like over there.

Thank you!
The restaurant we met at where his father worked closed down... My idea was to get together, us Camaro family with his family and mingle, take pics and what not.. and send that over.... I say we do at a different location and do so! so let the location ideas begin and coordinate with his family if they agree!
