Yoram was in a special unit in the army as a parachutist, and took part in the Lebanese War [see 1982 Lebanon War] [14]. That was a very difficult time for us, when we were afraid that we'd perhaps never even see him again. Luckily he got through it all, was decorated, and began to study Mechanical Engineering at the local university. After he finished his studies he left for America, where he received a scholarship and completed a PhD.
