Tze’elim, Israel – hierarchy
Hi,
Each time I am called to military reserve you got thrown into a different world in so many ways. One of those is the hierarchy.
You might think that if the guy is a Company commander or a Battalion commander, he is a manager in some company. Or he own his own company and run his own life.
But it not necessarily this way. It might be he is just a cashier on some bank (and on of manager banks is just a simple soldier underneath him). Or it might be he is just a youth basketball coach outside the army, in his professional life (like our battalion commander is)…
While he sits above others here, he is below outside….
It is just a strange bubble…=)

The explosives arranged (just like in the book)

An hard to explain feeling – walk with a bag of 5 kg of TNT on your back
