Israeli Soldiers Still Brave
`but More Independent'
THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Friday, May 29, 1970-15
TEL AVIV (JTA) — An Israeli
Army officer said that Israeli
soldiers entering the armed serv-
ices today are as brave and will-
ing to accept hardships and dan-
gerous assignments as their broth-
ers in the past.
But nowadays they ask more
questions, want to know more
about why they are fighting and
refuse to accept mere slogans that
were acceptable by soldiers in the
past, according to Col. Itzhak
Arad, the Army's chief educational
officer.
Col. Arad told newsmen at a
press briefing that the Israel Army
seeks to provide new recruits with
more than military training. He
said it tries to get the soldiers to
identify themselves with their
missions, the armed forces and
the state.
