The Yom Kippur War: A Naval Commander's Story at Sea

On October 6, 1973 on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, Egypt and Syria launched a surprise coordinated attack on Israel. Within hours, soldiers were rushed from their homes, synagogues, and bases to defend the country. One of them was Shaul, who was the Deputy Commander of the Israeli Navy. The Yom Kippur War lasted 19 days and reshaped Middle Eastern history. Shaul defended his country's waters, and the lessons and experiences of his service are still impacting the Israeli Navy to this day. ____________ We are the IDF.
