Winter is a real jew who davens with tangible sincerity (including throughout his stay in the US)

However,
unfortunately there is an old axiom in israel and the IDF:
(translated)All medinot have an air force.
In Israel,the Air force has a Medinah.

ipso,the IAF officer corp. is still very ‘lily white’ secular
(even the srugot are in temperature, temperament and attitude)

and significant change will hardly be tolerated

So if the “green” ranks are being suffused with religious,druze,russians,….,that is greeted with a condescending shrug and indifference

This commander really gave me encouragement because i have a hard time praying shachris . and if he can work on himself to pray better during the hell that he is in then what can my excuse be. I was so touched by this commander and i decided to also work on my prayer just in the morning and go back to shul and pray with more concentration. May god be with all us jews no matter how we dress or look.
