Golan, Assaf-Hanan
Ben Mati and Gad. Born in Tel Aviv on January 7, 1973. He spent his entire life with his family in Moshav Yesha in the western Negev, where he studied at the Habsor School in Tzohar from first grade until the end of 12th grade. He chose to study in the agricultural-biological track, and devoted his free time to work in his parents’ agricultural farm. His great dream was to integrate, upon his discharge from the IDF, in the family farm and in the transportation of trucks he loved so much, and he had a great love for life and the ability to connect with his many friends who were his brothers. He was drafted into the IDF in August 1991 and joined the Israel Defense Forces in August 1991, where he served in the IDF, Armored Corps. Here he passed a track as a fighter and was trained as a gunner. “Assaf was an outstanding gunner, every shell hit his target, he was a required crew member, every commander in the company wanted him on his team.” He took his love of the tank from his older brother, Eran, a company commander in the Armored Corps, but was very careful not to accept any “discounts.” During the course of his military service he was in operational activity in the framework of defending the northern communities. Assaf made his way with his friends in a convoy that went to the Khudar post in the northern security zone in Lebanon, where he was killed in a battle in Lebanon and was brought to rest in the military cemetery in Be’er Sheva. Sisters – Eran, Einat and Adi In a letter of condolence to the bereaved family, Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin wrote: “Assaf Hanan served in Battalion 9, the Armored Corps. Professional, capable of performing high. Maintained a good mood every situation. He was promoted posthumously. ” The commander of the armored corps, Eran’s successor, did not materialize, and the 9th Battalion, its commanders and soldiers, bow their heads in memory and share in your sorrow. “
