Golani Brigade Commander: My Soldiers' Love for Their Country Is Amazing
(Israel Hayom) Yoav Limor - This year's Memorial Day will honor the 67 IDF soldiers who fell during last summer's Gaza war, including 16 fighters from the Golani Brigade. Brigade Commander Col. Rasan Alian, who was wounded in the war, explained that in conversations with soldiers, they said, "We saw the threat to the nation that exists and the rockets flying toward the heart of the country." So many soldiers said: "In all of [Israel's] wars, it was others who went. Now it's our turn. We'll do it."
