"The kibbutz movement has lost its best sons and daughters," Karadi continued and said, "Its basic values - pioneering, volunteering, contribution to society and others - are what brought them to every battle front and to participate in heroic battles and also to be wounded or fall in battle.

The impressive presence of the kibbutzim in the senior command of the IDF and in Israeli society in general seems to say to the fallen - not in vain to fight for them."
