Boyok Brooks, David

David, son of Luna and Yehoshua, was born on April 24, 1951. He studied in an elementary school in his hometown, Although he grew up in a secular home that was not enthusiastic about the Zionist idea, David himself was infatuated with love for the Land of Israel and dreamed of immigrating to Israel and settling there, and when he was only fourteen years old, he succeeded in persuading his parents to send him to the Neurim Institute in Kfar Saba. Despite their fierce opposition to the idea, David prepared and prepared all the necessary documents, and even signed them for them, and for two years he lived happily in the “Neurim” After two years to sit in Israel, his father suffered a fatal illness and was forced to return to Turkey to feed his father with his illness, and David devoted his time to his father and devoted his time to encouraging and strengthening his hands in his war against the disease. After a long and difficult struggle, David decided to return to Israel, now that his father had died, nothing left to tie him to the stranger: “Israel is my land and being far from it is nothing but suffering for me.” And immediately after completing his studies he returned to Israel to remain permanently there. In Israel he began to work as a dancer and when he was twenty-one years he married a wife and established a house with her. His economic status was strong and he saw great happiness in the family life. “I do not want to serve in the Turkish army,” he used to tell his friends, “I want to serve in the IDF.” David was drafted into the Israel Defense Forces in late October 1972. He was recruited for a short six-month service period, as was customary for married new immigrants, and completed a basic training course in the Artillery Corps. After completing all the courses he was assigned to one of the corps’ field battalions, and in the battalion he served as a moving police driver, and although he was new to the unit he excelled in carrying out his duties. He loved his assistant and loved to take care of him. It was hard to see that the “green” soldier, who had just completed the course, was treated by the “green” soldier, and even his commander, who was known as an excellent commander, would accept David’s opinion on matters of profession. A few months later his eldest son, Shai, was born, and although he had properly fulfilled his obligations to his home, David did not neglect his widowed mother and would support him and his two brothers with great generosity.Now, having completed all his duties and ascended the highway, He could have given the whole family a comfortable and comfortable life, but he did not have time to enjoy his achievements Against the Egyptians in the Sinai, on October 7, 1973. He was killed in enemy shelling and was brought to eternal rest in the cemetery in Holon and left behind a wife and son, mother, brother and sister, private.
