Biton, David-Yehonatan


Son of Zohar and Avraham, was born on September 22, 1962 in Casablanca, Morocco. David was two years old when his family immigrated to Israel. The family settled in Kiryat Gat, which was then a young town. David’s parents knew how to adapt to the conditions of the country, but my uncle was a tender child in years, and did not feel the difficulties of crossing. He went to kindergarten, and then to kindergarten together with the other children his age. Dudi began his studies at the Shivtei Israel elementary school, and even then he excelled in his studies and stood out with his precision and order. He then moved to a yeshiva high school in Kibbutz Sha’alvim. His goal was to study at the institution, which would give him profound Jewish values, as well as general studies that would prepare him for life. After studying for two years at the Sha’alvim yeshiva, he decided to put an emphasis on computer studies and moved to the Bnei Akiva yeshiva in Netanya. At this meeting he graduated from high school. “As I remember my uncle from the yeshiva, he was active in social life, meticulous and loving order and cleanliness, and my uncle always helped his friends and never responded to any request. During his studies at the Bnei Akiva Yeshiva in Netanya, David was not satisfied with the 5-point high school he studied at the school, but occasionally “jumped” to Bar-Ilan University to hear a lecture on subjects that interested him. When he completed his studies, he was very hesitant about whether to enlist immediately or go to the yeshiva first, in order to enrich his spiritual world, and only then to enlist. Finally David decided to go to the Merkaz Harav yeshiva in Jerusalem, where he spent a year and a half. He expanded his conceptual world, acquired new friends and felt himself an adult. When he was 19, he decided to enlist and volunteered for one of the infantry units. David was stationed in a Golani unit. He completed basic training as an outstanding apprentice. After basic training, David was sent to a wireless course, and on the basis of his success in this course, he was invited to join the Corps’ computer unit. Since he was already interested in computers in high school, David saw a proposal that offered him serious seduction. After a great deal of deliberation, whether to leave the combat unit that belonged to it, he decided to accept the offer and was assigned to the Mamram, and for one year Dudi was able to serve in this framework and the reports that were received were very positive on April 11, David fell during his service and was brought to eternal rest in the military cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, leaving behind his parents, brothers and sisters
