Uhe pleasure of your company
is kindly requested at the
aventy-seventh Anniversary Banquet
of
Alva Hebreo Day School
New York, Los Angeles and
Norfolk, Va., so far, Mrs.
Freudenheim said. She
hopes to get the funding to
make this possible.
Eventually, the materials
will become part of the JWV
archives, which documents
"the involvement of Ameri-
can Jews in all American
wars;' said Herb Rosenbleeth,
the JWV's national executive
director.
These items from the Per-
sian Gulf are just the latest
affirmation of the contribu-
tions Jews have made to the
U.S. military since the
American Revolution.
The JWV was founded in
1896 to combat the belief
that Jews did not serve in
the armed forces and that
their patriotism was suspect.
The exhibit demonstrates
that Jewish military par-
ticipation continues to be an
honorable endeavor, accor-
ding to Mrs. Freudenheim.
"Of the people who sub-
mitted (materials), only
three wanted to remain
anonymous," she said. "The
rest were so proud to be in-
cluded." ❑
General Warns
Against Iran
Tel Aviv (JTA) — Israelis
have been warned by their
highest-ranking military
leader that Iran now poses'
the greatest menace to their
security, including a nuclear
threat.
That was the judgment ex-
pressed by the outgoing
Israel Defense Force chief of
staff, Lt. Gen. Dan Shomron,
in his final television inter-
view as an active officer of
the IDF.
Gen. Shomron formally
handed over the ac-
coutrements of his office to
his successor, Lt. Gen. Ehud
Barak, in a series of rituals
and ceremonies that ended a
35-year IDF career.
Gen. Shomron said the
damage done to Iraqi forces
in the Persian Gulf war
altered the military balance
of power in the region. He
explained that the battering
of Saddam Hussein's army
as it was driven from
Kuwait deprived Syria, a
sworn enemy of Israel, of
strategic depth.
That, plus the end of the
"Soviet umbrella" over
Damascus, reduced Syria's
immediate threat to Israel,
Gen. Shomron said.
But it also removed a
check on Iranian ambitions
and the spread of the Ira-
nian-led Islamic revolution,
he warned.
