This is Oren Almog. Oren lost his eyesight and five relatives in the suicide bombing in the Maxim Restaurant in Haifa in 2003. Although he is exempt from army service, Oren insisted on being enlisted into the Israeli Army.
Oren said after swearing his allegiance to the State of Israel, the People of Israel and the Army of Israel that ‘as someone who was hit pretty hard by terrorism, (he) is proud to serve an organisation that aims to protect the security of Israel, to prevent terrorism and to protect its residents’.
Oren is a true hero.
