last week was Holocaust day..

today is the Memorial day, the sirens screeched across Israel at 8:00 p.m. for a mintue of silence to honor

24293 lifes of Men and Women lost since 1863!

tomorrow morning they will be heard again as families goes to visit their loved ones in military cemeteries...

 

it is a sad night but we have to remember!!

I remember Joseph and Batia Eyal, Military Attache to Brazil, 1985-1989, as good friends and bad enemies. Speaks pretty much for the Israeli nation. RIP fellow warriors.
