Editor's note: Chayim Rozenblit, who wrote
the above article, fought in the War of Liberation
for Israel. He fell in battle on the 9th day of Iyar,
1948, and was buried in the military cemetery in
Degania. He was only 30 when he fell. When his
pregnant wife heard the bad news, she went into
labor and gave birth to their child, who bears his
name. See story on page 347.
