Landau, Emanuel (Emil)

Emanuel, son of Fania and Moshe Landau, was born on November 10, 1928 in Warsaw, the capital of Poland, and was subjected to wandering and suffering to the very day that he had lost his life in the war of Israel. In 1939 he left Warsaw and arrived in the Soviet Union. After three years of wandering, after being cut off from his lost parents, he immigrated to Israel with the “Tehran children” together with his sister. The beginning of his studies and his integration in Israel were at the “Aliyat Hanoar” educational farm in Jerusalem. He enlisted immediately upon the start of the War of Independence. In an ambush near Kiryat Motzkin, Emanuel was among the unit members who stormed the enemy cars. He jumped into one of the cars loaded with weapons, to get her out of the battlefield and pass the spoils to our fighters. Emanuel fell on March 17, 1948, he was laid to rest at the cemetery in Ramat Yochanan. On the 4th of Kislev, 5765 (9.11.1964), he was put to rest at the military cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem.
