I am fascinated by the war history of Israel. Time and time again they are outnumbered, destined for defeat and they never lose. Case in Point the 1973 Yom Kippur tank battle in the Golan Heights.

Good morning team. Just thinking about the grandchildren in the IDF. During Yom Kippur Mr I got out of his tank and a sniper took a shot. After the civil war in SL I went to look where the weapons were kept. We both survived. When you have the same values you make a great team xx https://t.co/xxEJJCIdHe
