n a cloudy day tinged with
sadness, two programs on
Tuesday in West Bloomfield
marked Yom HaZikaron,
Israel's Memorial Day.
A two-minute siren wailed at exact-
ly 11 a.m. in front of the Jewish
Community Center's D. Dan and
Betty Kahn Building to begin
Detroit's commemoration ceremony.
Some 50 people listened to poetry
read by Yeshivat Akiva students and
short speeches, then watched as Joshua
Berkowitz, Michigan Friends of the
Israel Defense Forces president, and
Mark Myers, community shaliach, laid
two wreaths at the memorial for fallen
Israeli soldiers. After singing
"Hatikva," some lined up single-file to
place 30 carnations — bearing the
names of Israeli soldiers with links to
the community — on the memorial.
Later in the evening, some 350
gathered in Marion and David
Handleman Hall to hear Israeli songs
offered by the Zamir Chorale of

Metropolitan Detroit, and poetry
readings. Both events were co-spon-
sored by the Jewish Federation of
Metropolitan Detroit and the
Michigan Friends of the IDF.
"Yom HaZikaron was specially
declared on the day prior to
Independence Day, leaving opportuni-
ty to honor those who gave their lives
in defense of the State of Israel," said
Israeli Lt. Col. Mordechai Berkovich,
who serves as assistant military attache
for technology and logistics in the
Israel Embassy in Washington.
"On this Memorial Day, we give
tribute to the memory of the 19,109
soldiers — men and women, from all
services of the armed forces — who
lost their lives."
In the past, Israel did not have the
money to buy all of the latest defen-
sive systems, so they made their own,
accordinc, to their need, Lt. Col.
Berkovich
b said. Citing Israeli-made
tanks, anti-tank missiles and military
satellites as the best in the world, he
assured the crowd that at present, the
IDF and the United States are "equal
partners" in high-tech weapons.
