There seems to be no sharp or
perceptive division, Gedalia ben
Arieh felt, between the time he
had been a civilian and his mill
tary life. It was a question of
outer garments rather than of any
cloak of mind One day he had
worn his ordinary clothing; the
next he was in khaki summer drill,
a private soldier in His Majestys
Forces. getting what has been
euphemistically called the Kings
shilling.
To Gedalia the difference did
not seem to be so great as it did
perhaps to the many unaccustom-
ed to the discipline of sports
association and service as a super
numery constable during the dis
turbances. He was accustomed to
bearing arms, to drilling, to stand
ing rigidly at attention, to the
inscrutability of motives behind
military commands. In the days
when he had served in outlying
Keren Haysod settlements, on the
very fringe Of the Yishuv as it
were, it had been commonplace
occurrence to exchange khaki
uniform for town-going attire for
a spell of weekend furloughs. The
difference was that he got his
furlough less frequently now.
What had induced Gedalia to
join? He was, after all. a trained
accountant. His service with the
Jewish Settlement Police had been
given out of an inner conscious
ness that his people needed him
behind a rampant rather than be-
hind a ledger-piled desk. When
the call came forth for the youth
of the Yishuv to join the colors, he
hardly thought about it but en-
listed among the first. There was
no soul-searching, no long nights
of meditation and reflection. no
profound cogitations. He just en-
listed.
Born in Tel Aviv to one of the
pioneer families of the all-Jewish
city, Gedalia was going on 25
years of age, unattached. He
knew the ms and outs of the vi

ing were passed out of the camp,
he was made a top sergeant and
complimented upon his ready adj
aptability to Army life and it's
austerities.
Eritrea, on the borders of which
Gedalia's unit eventually arrived
as part of the British and Allied
force which was to drive into the
Italian East African Empire, was
a country of craggy peaks and
sumits. Looking down upon the
mountain ranges, it reminded &C.
dalia in some ways of Galilee in
Northern Palestine which he loved
so much.

beaten scouts, and they had been
chosen, after having volunteered,
for some of the most ardous
fighting in the campaign which
led to the collapse of Mussolini's
much-vaunted East African EN-
pire.
1t is no longer military secret
t at Palestinian-Jewish troops
played a gallant part in the Fri
trean and Abyssinian campaign.
The facts have been published far
and wide since that time. Some
of the most bitter fighting took
place around Keren, one of the
Italian mountain strongholds
barring the way to Asmara, the
Eritrean capital. There were
casualties in this phase of the
campaign that counted Pales-
tinians among them.

an almost bewildering array of his
fellow Jews. He had applied to
be posted to Jewish fighting
unit. Among the other recruits
were men who had gone through
unreliable vicissitudes to reach
palestine; men who had spent
years in the land of their youth;
Palestinian-born and Polish-born,
German-born and Austrian-born.
It was veritable in-gathering of
the exiles, like so many volun-
tary association of Jews often
turns out to be. It may be a
Zionist Congress or an audience of
theatre-goers at Tel Aviv "Habi-
nah" production; it may be a
shipload of refugees bound for the
one haven which to them spells
the ultima thule Of liberty: or it
may be regiment of the British
Army-but, in each of these as
semblies, you will find Jews who
have spanned the globe in their
wanderings and, on returning to
Palestine, feel they have set foot
once more upon the ancestral
soil.
Each of these men had his ex-
periences, his "reminiscences, his
private tale of horror. Each
could retreat into some inner fast
ness of the mind from which he
dared not emerge lest he be
thought to be expressing the pro-
duct of fevered imagination.
Yet each, now that he had come
to Palestine could also understand
what it conveyed to be of Gedalia's
ilk, fearless and resolute. They
had learnt the attributes of Pal
estinian-Jewish hardihood.
A close-knit unity, they march
ed and drilled: they learned the
use of rifle, machine gun and
grenade, the modern accoutre-
ments Of the infantryman; they
trained in desert conditions; they
were taught how to adapt them
selves to the countryside through
which they were fighting, to &C.
quire the simple rudiments of the
art of camouflage in which the
tiniest instincts of Nature are
versed. They had their periods
of recreation and play. In the
garrison meeting hall they heard
lectures by visiting opponents of
the new Hebrew national culture
of their land; they sat spellbound
at performance of a troupe of
Hebrew players or a concert by
he musical ensemble which,
known far and wide as the Pales-
tine Orchestra, contains some of
the finest instrumentalists of the
day. Upon the sports field they
learned what fair play" and
play the game" meant. They
stumbled upon the secret of Anglo
Saxon conduct as projection of
the athletic impulse. They be-
came Jewish soldiers.
Gedalia had got on. He knew
the ropes. When the batch of
men with whom he was in train

shuv; he had tramped its high
ways and byways, he was possess
ed of a good knowledge of Eng
lish and Arabic in addition to
his native melodious Hebrew, he
was deeply-versed in the history
of his people. Above all, he had
no fear complex. He was a typi-
cal son of the Yishuv of today.
To young Palestinian Jews of
the Jews and second generation,
the history of their people is a
living and pulsating record.
He saw the grim, blood-spatter-
ed corridors of Jewish history,
echoing endlessly with the groans
and signs of his brethren; and he
saw them as though, in fact, he
had physically stood upon the
threshold and gazed upon the
corpse-lined walls smeared with
life's blood of his people. With
clairvoyant insight, he saw too the
faint glimmer of the light of sal
walton that beckoned from afar,
at the very extremity of that long
and gloomy corridor which was
the suffering of his people. When
that distant light was neared, and
grew into great portal of re-
demption, he and his kind in the
free Yishuv knew that, through
it, they would see those broad
horizons of Jewish nationhood
which for so many centuries their
innumerable forefathers had scam
ned only in their pain-endowed
imaginations. Freedom of the
Jewish spirit has been an age-old
national heritage; freedom of the
Jewish body is waiting for those
who will grasp it at the end of
that dreaded corridor-and it is
a precious freedom which the Jew
ish past has for so many weary
generations of tribulation and ira
vail so vainly coveted.
Heavens above, am I not as
good a man as beetle browed
Nazi? Have I not the same
Drawn of muscle? If he tried any
Of his dirty tricks upon me, I
should knock him and his like into
kingdom come. No inferiority
completes for me"
That is the spirit of the young
Yishuv today-the Yishuv of Pal
estine in which two thirds of the
men and women have not yet
reached middle age. Courage?
Hardly. Merely absence of fear.
For there is this about the air
of Palestine. It breeds healthy,
indomitable, strong-hearted and
sturdy boys and girls, adolescents,
men and women. The knowledge
of an existence untrammeled by
dictatorship, subject only to the
intricate play of democratic in
stincts, fashions a new concept of
the social order.
Yet, by ordinary human reckon
ing, I suppose, Gedalia ben Arieh
and his coevals would be account
ed brave.
When Gedalia entered the large
military training camp some
where in Palestine" upon the first
stage of what was his life in the
British Army in the Middle East,
he was not aware, either con-
sciously or subconsciously, that he
was Of the stuff of which heroes
are made.
The training period passed
quickly. In the camp Gedalia met
