Landau, Moshe

He was born in 1919 in Lvov, Poland, where he completed his high school studies and spent a short time studying at the university in this city, but was forced to stop his studies because of the harassment of Jewish students by the university authorities. When World War II broke out, he rushed to join the ranks of the British army and was placed in the medical corps. On the 5th of Tammuz (June 20, 1942) he fell in the battle of Tobruk, Libya, where he was laid to rest. His name was immortalized in “The Book of Volunteerism”; The Yizkor Book of the Jabotinsky Institute and the Hebrew University Memorial Library.
