After graduating from elementary school, he studied for three years at the “Amal” school in the city of Tel Aviv – in the automotive mechanics track. He loved this field very much.

He was involved in a few sports, but he loved football. Even after he was drafted into the Israel Defense Forces, he was awarded medals for excellence in soccer competitions, as well as other hobbies such as beach trips, swimming, beach games, backgammon games. He was drafted into the Israel Defense Forces in early August 1965 and served in the General Staff, where he was responsible for the automotive mechanics department, and when he was released from the army it was noted in the discharge certificate that he worked with dedication, responsibility and precision.

He was able to organize his friends at work and to prepare them for work – and all the work was conducted with joy, while he was in reserve duty, wounded in the course of his duties, and half a month later, on the 11th of Marcheshvan 5730 (30.10) 1971), died of his wounds. He was laid to rest in the military cemetery in Kiryat Shaul.

I remember that in reserve duty he would at least like to go to a combat unit and I remember one of the places in the Sinai, when we sat in a tired, hungry and bitter evening, and in a few joking jokes he raised the morale of the company- I remember many good things, and I can not bring them all up, he says Agreement On behalf of the regiment and battalion headquarters, Mutti was one of the best soldiers. “After the fall memory booklet was published as” Mutti “.
