I had the unique opportunity and honor of a lifetime to spend a couple of hours with 27 committed Israeli solders. Standing Together invited me to their annual appreciation dinner at a fancy up class restaurant in Jerusalem where we had a chance to express our great gratitude and appreciation to young devoted solders of Israel. But these solders, “Chayallim Bodedim” as they say in Hebrew, are not any ordinary solders drafted into the Israeli Defense force, however they were foreign born and raised persons from all around the world such as Holland, Russia, South Africa, South America, and many states in North America such as Los Angeles, New York, Connecticut, Virginia, New Jersey, and Hawaii.
