Haredi paratroopers from the all-religious HETZ ("Haredi
Paratroopers") Company of the 202 Battalion, who were conscripted just
three months ago, recently carried out their final training drill in
preparation for their first real-life drop, which they will be executing
in the next few days.
A total of 35 haredi paratroopers from HETZ took part in the drill at the Tel Nof.
The HETZ Company was formed earlier this year, swearing in the first haredi paratrooper unit in February.
A video taken from the training course shows haredi soldiers
practicing for the first time on the legendary "Eichmann" Tower, which
has been used for decades as a training spot for soldiers of the Red
Brigade. The 40-foot tall jumping tower, known to trainees as the
"Eichmann" Tower, is the most formidable structure on the training
ground. Jumping off the Eichmann Tower creates a similar sensation to
riding a zipline, albeit in this case, the person plummets a full 10
feet before the harness snaps into place and secures the person during
the fall.
The rabbis of the Nahal Haredi Organization, who have worked with the
haredi paratroopers since the group’s inception less than a year ago,
said that the HETZ company ensures that observant servicemen are able to
maintain their religious lifestyle throughout their service in the
army.
“As always in the special tracks reserved for haredi soldiers, the
course met all conditions of separation between men and women, provided
kosher l’mehadrin food, three daily prayers, Torah lectures and more.
The success with which haredi paratroopers integrate grueling training
sessions with uncompromising adherence to a haredi lifestyle is further
evidence that one can enjoy the best of both worlds by being haredi and,
simultaneously, an excellent soldier.” Aruz7 20.11. 2017
