Great story. But I really respect the whole legacy of the IDF. That said, I
was in a squadron that trained Isralis and later Saudis to fight in the F-15.
Those were fun times in my career.

What is most remarkable about this story to me is the photo. Look at the
minimal ribbons these guys wear compared to the massive numbers of meaningless
fruit salad nonsense the typical U.S. military functionary sports, most notably
at Congressional hearings.
