Shaked, Dorit


Daughter of Joseph and Amalia. Born on January 4, 1952 in Haifa, she studied in the first grades of the elementary school in Beit Oren and in the third to fourth grades of the Herzl School in Haifa, during which time she was a closed and withdrawn child, Dorit was born in Bucharest on a mission with her parents, where she learned the Romanian language easily and had close ties with two non-Jewish girls (Romanian), which lasted until the day of her fall. During her childhood, she was a member of the Scouts movement (on the Tzofit tribe) on Mount Carmel and later became a teacher In her free time she read Hebrew and English, especially from the world literature, and sometimes she would write in her writings and letters, and she loved classical music and learned to play guitar, and spent a few months in the wasp farm where she loved people very much To the children in the class, in which she was devoted, and the farm begged her to go out to SHL, but she insisted that she would go to the place she was sent to, although in fact she had a bad feeling and a fear of the future. This phenomenon of sorrow and melancholy and even fear of death, unsuitable for her young age, emerges from many of the writings she left behind. Dorit was drafted into the IDF at the end of February 1970 and volunteered to serve in the Nahal Brigade. She was sent to Nachal Geshur and was promised that she would be sent to a paramedics course, and on Wednesday, June 8, 1970, she was killed in an air strike in the Golan Heights. She was laid to rest in the military cemetery in Haifa.
