Recognize her? Perhaps not. This is the photo you might remember better.

    As we say in Hebrew, “kol ha-kavod!” (translation: all honor [goes to her])

      I’ll buy that. She’s like most Israeli youth, though. Even some of the young Haredim serve. Many more Israelis, proportionally, than young people of the U.S.

      Thanks for the comment.
