Feb. 7 -IDF Museum by Marcia Bercov

Shalom,

Today, after the morning community service, our group went to visit the IDF Collection House, actually the Museum of History of the IDF, Israel Defense Forces. It started as a depot for collection of tanks and weapons, and now comprises several buildings, for example, one with glass cases of rifles, and another building with walls of photographs of Ministers of Defense and Chiefs of Staff, along with a large number of gifts given by other governments. The museum also has cars used by former Prime Ministers.
That evening, a special guest, Kurt Hoyer, came to speak to our group. He works as a communications officer at the American Embassy in Tel Aviv. Finally I learned what people do inside those big buildings! It's a lot...

Keeping in touch,

Ron and Marcia
