Chief of Staff Gen, Mordechai Gur received this week two albums of the Jewish National Fund Golden Book, honoring the soldiers who participated in the Entebbe operation. “These golden pages,” Gur said, “were made possible by contributions from Israel and abroad,” He said that “had there not been the deciding factor of Jewish spirit, there could have been no Operation Jonathan.” The two albums were presented by representatives of the United Jewish Appeal and Histadrut.
