ALEH Residents Participate in IAF Ceremony to mark
40-Year Anniversary of
Entebbe Operation
10
To mark the 40th anniversary of the Entebbe Operation this past summer, ALEH residents were invited as honored guests to the graduation ceremony for IAF pilots at the Hatzerim military base. 11 residents, together with their caregivers and National Service girls, attended. Coincidentally, one of the participating residents was celebrating his 40th birthday on the same day. The residents’ excitement at attending the ceremony could be clearly felt. Every time a family cheered, so did they; each time planes flew over, they waved their flags high in the air; with each song, they smiled, and some even called out the names of the new pilots, with great joy. It was a day of great pride for all involved, having our kids included in such an event.
