Police Minister Arnol Kholer said after a debate on the subject that the several neo-Nazi incidents that have occurred in recent months represent no real danger to democracy. He said the government would follow these "symp- toms" closely but would take no "exceptional action." el Reserve Now For The HEATED THERAPEUTIC WHIRLPOOL PRIVATE BEACH FREE PARKING COLOR P/ & RADIO IN ALL ROOMS NIGHTLY ENTERTAINMENT WE CATER TO ALL DIETS FREE CABLE TV OCEANFRONT BOARDWALK Swiss Will Not Ban Neo-Nazis MEM -O© • • • • • • • 40th to 41st Sts.. 1 Miami ;;•=i4 NEWS cc YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME 800-327-8163 A lthough they are sep- arated chronological- ly by more than five decades, and culturally by an even wider gap, there are eerie similarities between World War I and the Vietnam conflict. These similarities are the focus of a new exhibit that recently opened at the Jewish War Veterans National Mem- orial Museum in Washington, "Lives Under Fire: A Com- parative Examination of Jewish Contributions to World War I and the Vietnam Conflict." "The idea of doing a com- parison of two different wars came to mind — and from there, we quickly developed the idea of looking at both World War 1 and the Vietnam war," said Mark Dreyfuss, the museum's curator. The two conflicts also define the outer boundaries of the Jewish War Veterans' membership; the group still includes a number of World War I veterans, although their numbers are rapidly. declining. And Vietnam vete- rans, according to Dreyfuss, are just beginning to become a force in the 75,000-member organization. "There were some marve- lous similarities and con- trasts — and within the con- text of both wars, we found Jewish soldiers who exempli- fied the kinds of soldiers we wanted to honor," Dreyfuss said. The centerpiece of the small exhibit is a display honoring six Jewish military men — three from each war. On display are their uniforms, photographs, weapons and descriptions of their exploits. Other exhibits provide a sense of context; old photo- graphs show Jewish life in the innocent days before World War I, and an album cover — Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band — shines a light on the upheavals touch- ed off by the Vietnam conflict. Dreyfuss and his colleagues deliberately chose Jewish soldiers of non-heroic propor- tions. The World War I sol- diers included an ordinary foot soldier, a hospital worker and a drummer; the Vietnam era honorees included a Navy and an Air Force navigator, and a Marine. "The point we wanted to make is that they all faced the enemy in their own CIEI 0 KOSHER HOTEL More of Sunshine daily Washington Correspondent fashion," Dreyfuss said. "This diversity of service was im- portant to us; part of the point was to demonstrate that Jews were part of the whole range of military activity." Dreyfuss is pleased with initial reaction to the museum, and to its premier exhibit. "I think it makes an important point to the Amer- ican public — that military service, for quite a while, was just another part of being an American," he said. "And Jews were no different than anybody else." Dreyfuss said he hopes the success of "Lives Under Fire," which is on exhibit through June, will lead to other inno- vative exhibits at the muse- um, which occupies the first floor of the Memorial's "R" Street headquarters, al- though the next exhibit has not been selected. "We're kicking around a number of ideas, including a look at the soldiers who liberated the concentration camps — and at the medical military, which was where many Jews served," Dreyfuss said. "I think it's becoming a very exciting place." L GLATT For Reservations Phone: TOLL FREE JAMES D.
