Givati Brigade Commander Pledges Personal Care for New Recruits Amid High Spirits at IDF Enlistment
The ongoing IDF recruitment drive recently spotlighted new enlistees joining the Givati Brigade and the Artillery Corps, many arriving with their families and high enthusiasm. Among them was a family who traveled from New York specifically to support their son. Veteran artilleryman Oded Ben Ami shared with the recruits the proud combat legacy of the artillery unit, emphasizing the motto "Once an artilleryman, always an artilleryman."
Brigade Commander Colonel Netanel Shamcha visited the recruitment office and personally addressed a recruit and his family, stating, "Every fighter and soldier in the Givati Brigade is like our own child. Our mission is to prepare him for war and bring him back." This message underscored the brigade's commitment to the welfare and readiness of its soldiers.
This recruitment phase is part of a broader series titled "Welcome to the IDF," which has featured enlistments across various units including the Navy, Armored Corps, Combat Engineering Corps, and now the Givati Brigade and Artillery. The series aims to highlight the motivation and dedication of new soldiers as they begin their military service.
