Ben Bracha and Yoel. He was born on 30.5.1983 in Karmiel in the Beit Hakerem Valley. Brother to Yogev and Idan. A creative, sociable, curious, playful and cheerful child who loved to enjoy, travel and have fun. Amit grew up in Carmiel, studied at the Moriah State Religious School and the Amit Religious Secondary School, and completed his high school studies at the “Pirchi Aharon” High School in Kiryat Shmuel, where he was a friend and friend, loved by everyone After completing his high school studies, before he enlisted in the IDF, he studied for one year at Yeshivat Or Or Yeshua in Neve Sha’anan, Haifa. In preparation for his military service in a combat unit, he trained during the year in the “Recruitment Unit”. Amit was recruited on 24 November 2002 to the Golani reconnaissance unit, the elite unit of the Golani Brigade, which he dreamed of arriving in high school. He was trained as a combatant and took part in many operations and operations. After completing his regular service he continued his career as a weapons officer in the Egoz unit. The army and the defense establishment were always at the top of Amit’s mind. Amit planned and carried out large and important projects for the units he served in and for the benefit of the IDF’s combat system. He also dealt with developing weapons and adapting them to the changing needs of the fighters in the field. In many cases, he saved the weapons he obtained for various operations. Amit showed great professionalism, always striving to obtain weapons of the first rank and high capabilities, far beyond the demand at that moment in the unit and the IDF. In all cases he succeeded, even after a long time. He performed his duties with love and devotion and with concern for his soldiers and for the unit. Amit’s commanders, subordinates and colleagues tell of the “endless devotion and devotion until the mission is completed”; “In every impossible task he comes with a variety of creative and imaginary ideas and makes them self-evident.” “The man to whom every problem and request is addressed takes care of his soldiers and spares his time for the unit.” “Aspires to bring the unit to the forefront of technology, a decent and honest person, gentle soul, was attentive ear to everyone”; “Modest, pleasant, and respectful of others”; “A Zionist and a Zionist who gave everything in favor of the people and the state.” Amit’s qualities and manner of conduct were a unique combination of a believer who lived according to high moral values, with a firm awareness of the needs of the moment and the external circumstances. Since childhood, grace, charity and giving have been one of the pillars of his life, and he has always done so with warmth and grace. He was very sensitive to needy and weak people, and anyone who reached out to charity and help responded with a smile and generosity, even if it was the last penny in his pocket. During his studies, he participated regularly in social activities and volunteered to donate to various organizations such as Akim, the Israel Cancer Association, etc. His numerous connections with donors from abroad and from Israel and with the giants of the Israeli defense industry in his role as an artillery officer did not dull his sensitivity to the needy Whether in the words of a member of the staff who asked for a favor or whether it was a person he met at random on the street. And peace kissed him “- this verse reflects Amit’s unique qualities: Amit would love a person as a person Create friendships with people from across the spectrum, there is interpersonal communication unique and the hearts of those around him for his honesty, his modesty and amazing personality. Curiosity and creativity were also cornerstones of a colleague: he liked to read texts stressAnd everything he wanted to know, studied and did not let go until he satisfied his curiosity. Thanks to his creativity and developed imagination, he participated in the development of many weapons and even took part in operational planning forums. His dream was to create a shield that would enable the soldier to “see and be invisible.” Amit showed concern and caring for his family, took an interest in what was happening, never forgot the birthdays of his parents and his brothers and knew how to give a unique gift, in the spirit of everyone, accompanied by a meaningful statement. He always returned with surprise to his parents and brothers. During his studies at the “Farhi Aharon” yeshiva and at the hesder yeshiva in Haifa, he used to visit his grandmother every week and help her. Amit had a great love for the Torah. Despite the intensity of his role, he found time during the week to study Torah and participate in classes. Shabbat was a magnet for “filling batteries” spiritual for the week. At the Sabbath meals he would say words of Torah and express wonderful and profound ideas that combined current events. He loved Torah study and Gemara issues that interested him, and he studied various subjects in Judaism that he wanted to study and study together with his brother, Yogev. All Amit did was done with total humility and modesty, to the extent that he refrained from telling about his actions and the things he had accomplished. It was this quality that captivated the people you worked for, who later (and sometimes at first sight) became friends with heart and soul, despite the age gap. Amit fell in the line of duty on 9 April 2007 at the age of 24. He was buried in the military section of the Karmiel cemetery and was survived by his parents and two brothers Yogev and Idan, grandparents and many family and friends. Lt. Col. Yaniv Asor, commander of the Egoz reconnaissance unit, wrote: “Amit volunteered for regular service in the Golani reconnaissance unit, and before his release he decided to continue his career as an Egoz combat unit officer. Was characterized primarily by the warrior who was inherent in it … Amit was always able to find solutions and to be a significant and influential factor in his field of activity in the unit … Amit was an assertive man of action, on the other hand, gentle, pleasant, pleasant, modest, and respectful of others, and we were privileged to serve with a man, friend and exemplary warrior. ” “I’m trying to find words to write to you – to your memory, it’s an almost impossible task, how can you write words to someone as wonderful as you, who are last words, words that are written on this page only if I could only tell them to you? In your last moments … I can not tell you how much everyone appreciated you. How in every impossible task you came up with a variety of creative and imaginary ideas and made them for granted. It is impossible to describe and digest the magnitude of the shock today in the unit and the company. You were the ambitious person, the man to whom you applied any problem or request, and you would do anything even if it was not always at the expense of military time but at the expense of private time. “Amit, when a person goes to understand the size of the space that opens up in the hearts of all of us, and to you I say that leaving a huge space …” To the family I can say that Amit was a devoted and independent commander, aspiring to excellence, striving to bring the unit to the forefront of technology. He did not spare his private time to do for the unit. “We all like Amit’s departure from us, shocked and hurt, sad and do not believe that Amit will ever come back to us.”
