Haredi boy whose mother was killed in terror attack is now IDF commander of same area
Mazel tov all you have achieved, Major, and on all you have yet to achieve.
[y-net] Maj. Shimon Abraham's mother and 10 other Israelis were killed in a horrific terror attack in December 2001 during the second intifada, 22 years ago. Today he has returned to defend the same area in the West Bank where the terror attack took place in his new position as deputy commander of the IDF's new co-ed Panther battalion.

Abraham, who lived an ultra-Orthodox lifestyle in the West Bank settlement of Emmanuel, is no longer religious and is serving as an officer in the Israel Defense Forces, a feat most ultra-Orthodox boys do not seek. In his new role, Abraham commands the Qalqilya area in the West Bank which includes settlements including Emmanuel.

And here I was going to wish him a L'Shana Tova...
