The theme for our day today was army day. We started off the day being split into two different groups. Two members of the army day committee became our drill sergeants and sent us into a frenzy of drills. We had to stand in different formations, run, crawl, or walk when instructed, and respond to everything with an enthusiastic “yes, sir!”. After sprinting back and forth for a bit, we returned to the volunteer center to discuss IDF values. We debated on what we thought were the ten core values of the IDF, and, after this intense discussion, we decided on 10 of them. For the most part, we were correct. We spoke to 3 Israeli soldiers about their experiences and then, because we missed the physical activity of the morning so much, we had a lesson with a Krav Maga specialist. We learned a lot of really cool moves and debatably life-saving techniques. Overall, we had a fun and learning-filled day.
