Hi,
It has been long time since I wrote you about the explosives we are dealing with during military reserve, and we have new explosives.
The IDF is happy to invent new explosives and new techniques. We sometimes learn about then and use them, most of times pretty late as we are reserve. But mostly don’t use them at all.
Not only this, but the explosive are changing. What we used when I was in mandatory draft, is not what we used in military reserve and not what we are using now.
I love to learn (and explode 
) those new things, but it sometimes feels we have very clever and sophisticated methods and means to deal with things that can be solved easily.
But… it might be only be and the fact that I am old, and I will leave those drills sooner or later (there are only few people in the company at my age that still called for reserve, and fewer that comes and participate).
I will write about it in couple of weeks, after it will be done deal, but it seems the fourth wave of coronavirus has passed us – third vaccine and no lockdown 馃檪. Anyway, they asked only people with third vaccination to draft for this session of military reserve. What left many out – either because the didn’t got the third, or they said so. Anyway we were only few, but when we got in – nobody care much about masks and so, neither us.
Take care
Gad
