Yinon, Nagar-Halevy


Yinon, son of Masuda and Yehiel, was born in Ashkelon on April 18, 1960, When he enlisted in the IDF on August 6, 1978, Yinon was assigned to the infantry, and after basic training he set out for a course for squad commanders. At the height of the course, his father died, and since Hanan was present in the field and could not be reached, he did not attend the funeral. This pain carried Yinon until his dying day. In 1986, Yinon married Anat, and they set up their home in the Ramat Eshkol neighborhood of Jerusalem, in the framework of the IDF Logistics Corps, where he successfully completed the officer’s course and fulfilled his father’s dream of becoming an officer in the IDF. In 1993, the couple relocated to the Ramot neighborhood of the capital, where they raised their six children: Tehila, Eliya, Yael, Shira, Yishai and Yitzhak During his long service in the IDF, Yinon held a number of positions in the maintenance and logistics system, And at the same time completed his BA in logistics and an MBA in Bar-Ilan University. Later, he began studying law at the ultra-Orthodox college in Kiryat Ono. Among his most prominent positions were the Head of the Transportation Division of the Central Command, the Deputy Commander of the Transport Base at Beit Nabala, and in 1999-2002 he closed a circle as a commander of command supply in the Central Command, a role that was his heart’s desire. “With my father, Yinon worked hard to develop management tools and to delineate cultural methods and work in the field of logistics.” My father continues: “I am a gentleman, a professional, a gentleman by any standard, a rare talent for listening to the other, “I knew that as your commander I could stamp the slogan: ‘There is no’ in the IDF. ” You followed me with the love of soldiers and units, investing all your resources in finding answers and solutions. And dedicating nights for the budget, so you can always prove that you can become more efficient, you can spend it a lot easier to par value, and all for a great cause: the command’s soldiers. ” In his capacity as commander of command supply, Yinon experienced the complexities and challenges that were called(The “Al-Aqsa intifada”), culminating during Operation Defensive Shield in March 2002. This period was characterized by great pressure, hard working conditions and great tension, but Yinon, who was cool, knew how to listen to the needs of the area and led His subordinates with patience, while providing the best service to the last of the soldiers. “Leading an amazing team inspired by you, who took the trouble to know where every soldier, like a worried mother, wrapped him warmly, in warm food, in personal packages, in equipment, in ways that were not even within your responsibility.” The final project in the framework of the joint work of Yinon and Avi was the recruitment facility for reservists in Lachish: “Like students who do their internship, you treated the project … You revealed to me at the peak of your greatness the highest point of giving up personal comfort for the common good. You have perfected the matter of people and not just angels. ” After completing his position in the Central Command, Yinon served as Head of Branch of Training and Auditing at the Logistics Corps Headquarters at Tel Hashomer, and for years Yinon served as number two in the command and led the industry to outstanding achievements, IDF competition for commanders in cooking “and more. Humility, modesty, and love of man were among Yinon’s outstanding characteristics, as was the honor of others – whether he was a senior or a manual laborer. “Every one of us felt that there was something paternal about him, something warm, truth of love, the truth of giving, with all the noble wisdom he had,” says Rabbi Meir Yagen. The others, the least respectable, and help them … As long as he was the son of a king, he did not forget that he had brothers who suffered and went out to them. ” Thanks to the great knowledge he had, and because of his strong intuitions, attention and sensitivity, Yinon was an address for consultation in every field, even for those of senior rank. Brigadier General Itzik Ben-Tov, Chief Logistics Officer: “I felt a dose that the sky is the limit … Yinon was gifted with persuasion, guidance and study … I had a brother, he taught me the sentence, ‘before you answer, count up to three ‘Today I am counting to ten, but I can not reach the ability to memorize them. ” First and foremost, Yinon was a loving family man, a devoted husband and exemplary father, protecting his wife and children like a lioness protecting her cubs. The “rescuer,” as he was called, always came to Anat’s aid and helped solve all the problems. “His first priority was the family,” declares Yael, his daughter, “that it included everything in him – love, the giving he gave us endlessly.” Yinon took every opportunity to spend time with his children – together they went on trips around the country, spent time playing parks in and around Jerusalem, riding bicycles or rollerblades, and much more. Even when he returned from an exhausting day of work, Yinon’s patience did not dissipate, and his son Yishai points out another characteristic: “One of the measurements in my father is the truth. Yonah says that he is very interested in the subject of education, as his daughter Shira says: “It was important for our father to succeed, so that we would not miss a day of school. In homework. ” His great care, his great love and the willingness to reach out and help – mentally or materially – Yinon also showed his extended family and friends. “Yinon’s friends were also expressed in his concern for all the corners and all the people in all the places, and I did not know how he could take care of everyone and so many people at the same time and at the same time,” says Ran Omri. Modestly and quietly, Yinon did great acts of kindnessAmong other things, used to make a tenth of his salary, and added a yeshiva student to study. As a religious-Haredi lifestyle, Yinon managed to adapt himself to the environment, and throughout his service he knew how to combine perfectly between religion and the army, and between the spiritual world and the business world. Yinon did not skip prayer in the minyan, did not give up time to study Torah, and at the same time performed his military duties in the highest degree. “A man with humility, with joy, with a smile, with an amazing ability to think,” says Tefara, Yinon had iron patience, and all his actions showed order and organization, punctuality and thought. “If he was not a military man, he would certainly have been a surgeon,” Yinon was quoted as saying, because in addition to gold, he was also blessed with the ability to go down to the smallest detail. One of the special projects initiated by Yinon with the help of his wife and his family and which attracted great enthusiasm was “Mishlei Nagar” – every Sunday Yannon published a weekly weekly magazine from the Jewish literature library. “What motivated me to start the activity was conversations I heard about the distress of the day among people in the headquarters and in units,” Yinon said in a newspaper interview. The idea behind the project was to convey a social and spiritual message, and to raise the level of personal awareness among the military in a humorous and narrative way. “I believe we should always be real, and behave in a civilized way,” Yinon added. “When you have a problem, it’s important to check yourself first and not to point to others, and when you solve your problems, the whole environment will want to stick to it.” The mailing list of those seeking to receive “Proverbs Carpenter” grew rapidly, reaching hundreds of people, even outside the logistics corps. “As long as I have the strength, I will continue searching for completeness,” Yinon promised. In May 2005, after a period of feeling ill, Yinon conducted tests that suggested he had cancer of the large intestine. From the moment of discovery the great race began to find a cure for his cure. For six months Yinon was in agony, and yet he remained optimistic and, as usual, continued to show concern for others. Rachel Maimon, his sister, tells of his concern for her disabled daughter: “When he was already on his deathbed, he said to me, ‘Raheli, you owe me something … You promised me to buy a special mattress for Yael …’ and he sent his friend to buy her The mattress … “On the 25th day of Chanukah, Yinon returned to the Creator at the age of forty-five.
