His parents commemorated the two friends of his father from the Egoz patrol: the late Lieutenant Dov Adar and the late Captain Yossi Doreli. His teacher describes him as “a sweet and quiet child, a child who thinks that he immediately has a creative thought and is thirsty for every word and listens with his mouth open and accepts everything seriously as a Torah from Sinai. “He said. Dvir studied at the elementary school in the moshav and at the Emek Harod Comprehensive School in the biologic-realistic track. He was a unique child – talented, scholar, wise, diligent, intelligent and successful, with a quick and clear way of thinking, with a unique quality. He always wanted to reach the top and excellence. The leader of the class, who gathered around him and heard his voice. Everything he took upon himself was carried out with responsibility and seriousness, for the best. His eyes are inquisitive, his ears are sensitive and his heart is open. All that is absorbed is internalized. Dvir was educated on the personal example he received from his parents. The day-to-day education of keeping values ​​and standing up to them-from his father, and the unflagging warmth of his mother-shaped his character. His three brothers, the extended family, and the homeland also had something to contribute. An atmosphere of volunteerism, which is the emergence of an internal and free will for the benefit of the people and society. From an early age, Dvir was prominent in his leadership and in the seventh grade he managed the garden committee, which is responsible for the beauty in the children’s company, with great success. Dvir was very fond of driving and was known as the driver of the children’s company – for summer camps, sea parties. After completing high school he will operate the most sophisticated tractors in the moshav. Dvir loved the sea very much and would spend hours swimming, playing tacos on the beach and surfing the waves. He excelled in sports, especially in volleyball and his boldness. The social coordinator of the children’s society told of Dvir, who was a charismatic boy with a developed sense of justice and leadership ability, who did not lose his composure even under pressure. Dvir was also a great mischievous man, but in all his mischievous acts during adolescence, he was always worried that his actions would interfere with him becoming an officer in the army. After his enlistment, he maintained constant and close contact with his many friends. Dvir joined the IDF in early December 1993 and served in the Armored Corps as a tank driver and later as a tank commander, and he completed an officer training course with honors and was instructed to serve as a platoon commander in a tank commanders course. In December 1995, Dvir joined the ranks of the career army, and his commanders defined him as “the best officer in the battalion,” “one of them,” “an outstanding shrewner,” “a natural leader with charisma and charm Personal, ambitious and uncompromising officer, who showed resourcefulness and independence in carrying out his duties and showed great motivation. He fulfilled every task assigned to him professionally and with dedication, took care of his light, and showed great initiative and work ethics. Dvir was one of a special breed of people who can not find every day. “Dvir planned a military career and planned to leave for a company commander’s course, In the last year of his life, a love relationship was established between him and Hagit, whom he met at the Armored Corps base, and the two spent weekends and vacations together.On the evening of 28 February 1997, the helicopter disaster occurred when two Yasur helicopters collided over Moshav Shear Yashuv. The seventy-three fighters, who made their way to operational activity in Lebanon, were killed, including Dvir. He was twenty-two years old when he fell. He was laid to rest in the military section of the cemetery in his moshav, Moledet. Survived by his parents, three brothers and a girlfriend. After his fall he was promoted to lieutenant. His family commemorated the entry of a Torah library into the synagogue in the moshav, and on the anniversary of his downfall a memorial book “A Sad Dream of Beauty” was published. Next to Moshav Moledet, where Dvir was born and raised, the family established an observatory bearing his name. The place was chosen because it is a part of Dvir’s childhood and youth, and there are social activities for the children of the moshav and the region. From the view you can see the landscape, from the Hermon in the north, through the Gilead Mountains and the Golan Heights in the east to the Jordan Valley in the south. Colonel Udi, the commander of the platoon in which Dvir served, wrote to the family: “Dvir served in the Bnei Or Brigade, the flagship of the Armored Corps as a gardener, a trainer in the tank commanders course. I am the commander of soldiers, commanders and officers, and these are good people, one of the best in the IDF. Of them, rarely, I meet particularly outstanding, which turn my attention in an unusual way. Dvir was one of them. I have been following him since Armored Corps course, as an excellent cadet, who finishes the course with honors. We decide to leave him as a platoon commander, a gardener in a tank commanders course in the Azzuz unit. The choice is correct. Dvir, within weeks, takes command and becomes the commander of the company’s leading company, admired by his subordinates and Ehud for his comrades and commanders. “From his uncle Tzur Eliaz’s words:” … there is no place where I would like to be / That / to pick you up, pick up, hold / the distance was not saved and you lost all the height / big muscles that I saw going swelling / the thin, wheezy voice / replaced by the “normal” with the jarring wording / you always knew what you wanted and where the trail would lead / Other Lead / A lot of confidence and a desire to succeed / A talented child in the end For all of us will prove / end came like you – fast and cynical … / We were many brothers / the beginning of life, You deserve all the degrees, and especially the friend! “
