Were the victims Jewish?
Very nice. Just FYI, I don’t think they were Jewish.
Not sure why Misaskim were needed, as they appear to both be Righteous among the Nations. Sara’s mother is Nancy Milgrim from KS, her maternal grandmother is Susan Repplinger from IA, and her great grandmother was Helen Lynn from IL. This can be verified with their Rabbi, Stephanie Kramer, from The Temple, Congregation B’nai Jehudah, Overland Park, KS.
Regardless, they both have a very special status for living and dying defending the State of Israel and the Jewish Nation.
It was nice to respond as a kind gesture but apparently neither of them needed this particular service because both of them were ayno yehudim
