Uhm, guys, I kinda already posted a translation. If one of the mods would like to copy and paste it into the OP that would be great.

I'm sure what you did here for these Polish troops they will never forget, and not only did it lift thier spirits, but I think it also helps foster goodwill between our two countries at a grass roots level.

Thank you but I can't stress this enough that although I did play a part most of the credit goes to the Gorillas/Inmates that made this possible.
Certainly I included several bundles of cigars myself but the vast majority >800 were donated by the Jungle.
This is what makes this community absolutely amazing, the fact that we care about others and hold very closely to the unwritten BOTL code.
I salute all of you for the help and in retrospect (and this part will sound strange on the surface) I am happy that there was no mention of Club Stogie in the papers. It would really bother me if some guy with bundles of cash had purchased the credit for what all the BOTL's did/do.
Cheers,
Rob
