Che was one of a kind revolutionary. My dearest Aliusha, Camilo, Celita and Tatico, I write to you from far away and in great haste, which means I cant tell you about my latest adventures. Its a pity, because Ive met some very interesting friends through Pepe the Crocodile [this was Ches playful reference to Uncle Sam!]. Another time... Right now I want to tell you that I love you all very much and remember you always, along with mama, although the younger ones I almost only know through photos, as they were very tiny when I left. In a minute Im going to get a photo taken so that you know how I look these days -- a little bit older and uglier. This letter should arrive about the time Aliusha has her sixth birthday, so may it serve to congratulate her and hope that she has a very happy birthday. Aliusha, you should study hard and help your mother in everything you can. Remember, you are the oldest. Camilo, you should swear less as in school you shouldnt speak like that and you have to learn what is appropriate. Celita, help your grandmother around the house as much as you can and continue being as sweet as when we said goodbye -- do you remember? How could you not. Tatico, you should grow and become a man so that later well see what you make of yourself. If imperialism still exists, well set out to fight it. If it is finished, you, Camilo and I will take a vacation on the moon. Give a kiss from me to your grandparents, to Miriam and her baby, to Estela and Carmita, and heres an elephant sized kiss from... Papa. To Hildita, another elephant sized kiss and tell her Ill write soon, but now I dont have time.
