Israel's Gadna ,Youth
Described by Detroiter •
In a recent letter to his par-
ents, Joseph Yanich, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Yanich of 2319
Leslie, presented a graphic des-
cription of a 40 kilometer tiyul
through Israel from Aim Kerem
to the coastal plains.
Among the, most impressive
things encountered on the four
day hike was the work of the
Gadna, an organization of semi-
military status for the training
of youth 14 to 17 years old.
Yanich describes Gadna as a
ten-year-old organization train-
ing youth for military. purposes.
Officers of the Israel army have
risen through the ranks from
Gadna,' and the Palmach men
were 90 percent former Gadna
members.
During the current peace
Gadna still trains Israeli youth
in the event of Arab attack.
Gadna also built government
roads when private labor was un-
attainable, and aids in ha4est-
ing the • crops and helping new
immigrants and kvutzot.
There is
bill before the
Knesset now to make member-
ship in Gadna compulsory for
youth within its age limits. This
is all in line, Yanich states, with
the program to build healthy
and well-spirited youth for the
protection and future develop-
ment of Israel.
Yanich is now in Israel on a
years scholarship to the •Hebrew
University awarded him by the
Michigan Zionist Region of the
ZOA.
