As a commander and guide Shalom was sent by air to Kfar Etzion with the religious company, where he was attached to the Palmach and was appointed commander of the monastery. Shalom fought heroically until his last breath. He fell in the fall of Kfar Etzion, on the 4th of Iyar 5708 (13.5.1948). On the 25th of Cheshvan 5710 (17.11.1949) he was laid to rest at the military cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem.
