Ready for Combat?


Wilsons reporting for duty at Ammunition Hill (battleground about 2 miles from our home for one of the bloodiest showdowns in the 1967 6-Day War). Be warned, the following photos may be graphic.


Wilson Troops check out the trenches.



Privates Suzy and Heather are on the lookout. Suddenly we hear, "Enemy on the left flank!"


The troops duck for cover wherever they can find it! Even Private Heather, wounded in the onslaught, staggers from behind the disabled tank.


Lieutenant Kim refuses to leave her comrade behind despite the shrieking!



Thank goodness . . . we made it out alive, but the Lieutenant's the only one in the mood to celebrate. She enjoys a few chin-ups in a wild display of excitement and then orders the rest of her regimen to their bunkers for a nap and P-rations (pita, that is).


**Stay tuned for more exciting adventures of the Wilsons in Israel saga.
