Son of Israel and Malka. He was born on December 17, 1946 in Holon. When he was three years old, the family moved to Givatayim. He attended the Gordon Elementary School and the ORT vocational high school. Pinchas felt very close to home and family. At the age of 17, he ran his father’s grocery store, which fell ill. He liked to go to the synagogue, to pray and listen to cantorial passages. The special atmosphere in the synagogue led him to identify with Jewish values and traditional values. Already in his childhood he was discovered as a child of an aspiring nature for independence. He would pay special attention to children younger than him. He listened patiently to their stories, and when one of his little friends fell ill, he would sit by his bed because he could not bear the suffering of another child. Friendship was an important value for him, so he was always willing to help others and encourage his friends. Pinchas was exceptionally sociable, was the driving spirit in every social event and always constituted the center of every society. In his leadership capacity he was able to encourage conversation and debate and to interest all those around him. On the trips he organized he would contribute to creating a pleasant atmosphere. The success of a trip or a party depended on Pinchas’ participation. He was a definite idealist with regard to the State of Israel and the values of Judaism. He advocated the idea of ”Greater Israel” and argued for hours with people who disagreed with his views. At one point, a young man defied him: “What are you willing to give for the Greater Land of Israel? You are sitting in Tel Aviv and you are doing nothing.” But Pinchas answered him quietly and confidently, “I’m willing to give a lot” And he gave … He would travel a lot throughout the Land of Israel, along with his friends and admire the views, the expanses and the development of the country. Pinchas’ connection to the Land of Israel did not stem solely from the fact that he was born and raised there. It was a national historical connection rooted in Jewish tradition. He saw himself as part of the chain of generations of the Jewish people and was unwilling to accept the division between an Israeli and a Jew. The Land of Israel was, in his eyes, a national home for the Jews of all the diaspora communities, and therefore he emphasized the need for immigration. He could not understand how people did not understand that the Land of Israel was not only within the Green Line, as laid down in the armistice agreements of 1949. He insisted that the Jewish people were not in accordance with these agreements but by virtue of their historical right to the Land of Israel, Those released are an inseparable part of the State of Israel. Pinchas was drafted into the IDF in November 1964 and was sent to the Technical College of the Israel Air Force, but he wanted to serve in a combat unit and therefore volunteered for the paratroopers. It was only the realization that his mother wanted to see him as an officer in the IDF motivated him to finish the officers’ course. On one of the most difficult trips of his unit near Haifa, he organized a tour of his soldiers at the electricity station and told them: “The army is the school of love and recognition of the land, and this opportunity must be exploited to recognize this enterprise.” In the Six Day War, Pinchas was a platoon commander and took part in the paratroopers’ invasion of the Gaza Strip, and later took part in battles in the Golan Heights. He goes out among people, especially the bustling markets, impressed by their behavior and knows how to make it easier I found the strange and interesting of them on the way, between Giv’atayim and Petah TikvaSometimes pays taxi fare to taxi drivers to pick up soldiers who have been waiting for a “ride” at the side of the road. Even in the enemy soldiers, Pinchas saw human beings. In the Six-Day War he participated in the first battle at the outskirts of El-Arish, where his company encountered an Egyptian ambush. Pinchas’ bullet hit an Egyptian soldier during an assault. Pinchas reached the corpse of the fallen man and stopped for a moment, astonished. His commander urged him to continue the battle, and then Pinchas leaned over, covered the Egyptian soldier with a steel hat and continued the assault. In this war, Pinchas knew a mental shock. He saw death closely by the loss of friends and soldiers who served with him, and his soul was hurt. Restless he returned to his house and could not find his place. A few months after the war, he was released from the army, but found it difficult to get along in civilian life, as his friends did, and he sought a purpose and purpose for his life, because he felt that he must give his life justification and meaning. He was able to understand his hesitations and uncertainties, and he did not bother to explain to them how he felt, but he shared his thoughts with his close friends, who planned many future plans and aspired to continue his studies in order to develop his personality, but his death was premature. Which was held shortly before he left for reserve duty, Pinchas and several friends organized a meeting He joined the group that tried after the Six-Day War to promote immigration to the liberated territories and establish a city, but the idea did not succeed for political reasons, despite its many activities, running around in various institutions and meetings with personalities. His disappointment continued, and Pinchas continued to join the group that was preparing to settle in the vicinity of Nablus, and he came to settle with this group and even though the authorities delayed the settlement, Pinhas did not prevent him from continuing. Which already exists. He was deeply impressed by the settlement of the Jews in Hebron out of their religious recognition and national feeling that it was their home. He was deeply attached to Beit Jala, the Biblical exile that was near Bethlehem, and was enchanted by the Yaffa landscape that was seen from there, and Jerusalem was seen from the heights of the mountain and the Judean hills around it, and this brought him to true excitement. Who, despite the difficulties, had no water or electricity or necessary conditions, and without the authorities’ permission, and Pinhas often went to help guard duty at night, and he also organized other members for the same purpose. The first Passover for the inhabitants of Beit Jala. At the end of April 1970 he was called up to active reserve duty, from which he did not return. On the 27th of Iyar 5705 (23.5.1970), Lieutenant Pinchas fell in battle on the banks of the canal. He was laid to rest in the military cemetery in Kiryat Shaul. His commander wrote in a letter of condolence to the father of bereavement: “Pini was one of the commanders of the stronghold during the first raid on the line, which was repulsed with great success, and Pini arrived at Maoz after one of the former commanders of the stronghold was killed in a heavy shelling that descended on the stronghold and found the soldiers of the stronghold. He was desperate and worked day and night to rehabilitate him, including raising morale among the soldiers who were with him, and within a short period of time he performed wonders and the stronghold, which was the glory of the sector, returned to his previous state. And from us in the same well-kept dining room when at the time of the shelling He found refuge in the stronghold with six of his friends, all of themTo the district commander. “About a month after Pinhas fell, the Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister of Education and Culture wrote to the members of the committee established to commemorate his name:” I met with Pini in his stronghold the morning after the repulsion of the Egyptian attack on it. He excelled so well, I heard details from him and was very impressed by his dynamic and magical personality. We met again to discuss settlement possibilities in the occupied territories, but the young man fell asleep on his watch. “The committee to drop his name published a book in his memory called Pini.
