Man Pens Emotional Letter to Rescuer Who Saved His Life During Yom Kippur War

Translated & summarized from IDF Spokesperson by baba
The story · English

Efi Cohen, who served as a radio operator at the Tel Faras outpost during the Yom Kippur War, has written an open letter to the "angel" who saved his life. During the war's outbreak, the outpost was bombed, forcing Cohen to flee. In the chaos of his escape, he temporarily lost his sight.

Cohen credits his survival and eventual return home to his friend Shlomo, who held his hand for hours during the harrowing escape. Cohen's letter expresses his deep gratitude to Shlomo for his life-saving actions and for enabling him to see again.

The letter, described as moving, details Cohen's emotional experience and his profound appreciation for his friend's bravery and support during a critical moment.
