Shalom everybody it's Monday night here
Ari and I have been called to reserve
duty for a week of training before our
next mission in May I can't say much
about the mission but I know that in the
southern command it will have something
to do with Aza Egypt and probably Isis
we've come out here in the middle of the
night and let me tell you before it was
pouring rain the winds were insane Ari
and I were trudging through mud I don't
know what to do other than to laugh it
was so out of the ordinary of what we
were doing but then to real ize the
amazing reality of living in the state
of Israel all of these people
here they're just regular guys like me
and AR they're doctors they're lawyers
they they live in kibuts they live in
the isim they're just Israelis and once
a year they take away time from their
family from their work not to go on
vacation but to come out in the middle
of the desert to train for the next war
that we have to fight now imagine what
that does to someone who's working in an
accounting firm once a year they remind
themselves that they're not just a part
of an accounting firm but they're a part
of a Nation a nation defending a land
and now to be a part of the most
righteous Army the world has maybe ever
seen second to David's Army to be a part
of these Jews who are willing to
self-sacrifice to give up from their
time their money their family their jobs
to serve the people of Israel we're a
part of a Nation like no other in
serving here to Ari and I feels like
this is David's Army resurrected and so
while whatever you guys are doing
wherever you are around the world Ari
and I are protecting you working for you
praying for you and I want to say thank
you to Ari's friend his name is Thomas
they were childhood friends for a long
time he heard we were going out into
reserve duty in the middle of the winter
and he's like I'm buying them all
jackets cut us a check now let me tell
you a lot of the guys here forgot to
bring jackets didn't bring jackets in
the middle of the pouring rain all of a
sudden a gift was given to 400 soldiers
brand new black top-of-the-line jackets
with our logo on them it saves people's
lives tonight period and they're going
to have it when they go out to the next
War so Thomas thank you and all of you
viewers thank you for being with us I
know that AR wants to say something to
you
