Meet Israel's Elite Military Divers
(Jerusalem Post) Seth J. Frantzman - The IDF's Yaltam underwater mission unit is one of several units requiring divers in the military. While the naval commandos are better-known, Yaltam deals with explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) and professional divers. Training includes a diving school, advanced diving, and learning to work underwater. One of the unit's most important missions is search and rescue. If there is a civilian in distress or need for divers, they would be the first to be deployed.
