Pingreuth, Daniel Joseph-Meir
Ben Solange (Shoshana) and Shmuel Halevi. Born on 19 July 1974 in Paris, France, and immigrated to Israel in 1992. Daniel studied for twelve years in Jewish schools in France and completed high school in the real-world track. Danny Kedoshim, a classmate at elementary school, recalls: “I met Daniel in sixth grade in France, and I remember that he was one of the leaders in his class, who always succeeded in his studies and always invested in religious studies or general studies. And was ready to help those who needed it. ” Daniel played soccer in the elementary school group that belonged to Maccabi France. When he was sixteen, he joined the Scouts movement, where he traveled several times in Israel and even volunteered to help with IDF bases Daniel, together with his classmates, founded an internal newspaper called the INTELLO BRANCHE. And after he completed his high school studies, he decided to immigrate to Israel and join the Heichal Eliyahu Hesder Yeshiva in Jerusalem, where he met friends who had also immigrated from France. , Who also studied with him at the yeshiva: “Daniel had a desire to learn in depth. He was never pleased when the interpretation was easy. He always wanted to get to the bottom of things. He preferred to study a small section, but with full understanding and comprehension, than an entire chapter with a moderate understanding. “Daniel was always in a good mood. Even in the most difficult situations. He was a guy with a good heart. He was always ready to make the others happy, to organize parties, he always pushed his friends forward. “Yishai adds:” He had another quality – the volunteerism. He volunteered for everything and especially excelled in helping others. As part of his volunteer work, the tour of the Civil Guard turned into a volcano – noisy, funny, to hear Danny’s jokes. “Daniel decided to join the IDF as part of the” Machal “program, which includes a year in yeshiva, nine months in the army and a year abroad. Unlike all his friends who wanted to reach the infantry, Daniel wanted to be armored, and in mid-August 1993 he was drafted into the IDF and joined the Armored Corps. He had reached the basic training base of the corps to begin basic training. On August 25, 1993, Daniel fell in the military cemetery on Mount Herzl, leaving behind his parents and brother Eli, nineteen years old, in a letter of condolence to the bereaved family: “Daniel enlisted in the army The defense of Israel is part of a supreme mission, with only a few operations – immigration from France to take part in the security burden of the State of Israel. At the very beginning of his career in the army, we noticed that we, the commanders, had an extraordinary young man with a strong desire to succeed and contribute, pleasant, comfortable and friendly, devoted and disciplined. “Daniel, who was always interested in the tradition and his forefathers, understood exactly what Avraham understood – that he must return to the source from which he was created, the Land of Israel, So he came to Israel. After he went after the Land of Israel, and after the Torah of Israel (in the yeshiva), he decided to act for the people of Israel – in the army. “The Heichal Eliyahu Hesder Yeshiva published a booklet in his memory containing Torah and Deuteronomy.
