First Bedouin Tank Commander in IDF
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - Cpl. Mustafa Tabash is the IDF's first Bedouin tank commander. "My parents were proud of me when I enlisted," Tabash said. He sees his military service as enabling him to better integrate into the wider society. "When it's hard for the other soldiers, they look at me, who as a Bedouin did not have to enlist, and this helps them and sets an example."
