and his son Adrien work at removing the generator from Sonny's Airstream just north of

rest of his trip home to Florida. |

One of the NCMVPA members who had really wanted to be in the convoy
managed to get himself deployed to Iraq, so we sent him a convoy t-shirt...
Chris replied "I received the convoy T-shirt in the mail last week, and I wanted to
let you know how much I appreciate having it. Thank you so much for it. I've
attached a picture of me wearing it. I was going to try to get a better picture, but I
would look pretty much the same, so I figured I would go ahead and send this one since I'm
not getting any younger or better lookin'. My first sergeant took the picture for me on
the roof of the house we live in here in Baghdad. The house behind me took a missile
during the war, but the destruction you see now is from the teardown of the
house." Hopefully, Chris will be able to join us in person for the 2005 East
Coast Convoy, meanwhile, we are wishing him well... |
