This document is page 111 of a book or manuscript, likely a memoir by an Israeli military figure (historical context suggests Ehud Barak), produced as part of a House Oversight investigation. The text details the narrator taking command of the Sayeret Matkal special forces unit, reflecting on its history under Avraham Arnan, and outlining a strategic shift from pure intelligence gathering to becoming an active fighting force in response to the Six-Day War, the War of Attrition, and the rise of terrorism in 1970.
HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_027952.jpg
This document is page 104 of a memoir (likely by Ehud Barak given the biographical details) stamped with a House Oversight Committee identifier. It recounts the author's wedding in the spring of 1969 and his subsequent return to the Sayeret Matkal special forces unit as a deputy commander under Menachem Digli during the onset of the War of Attrition. The text discusses the geopolitical climate in Israel following the Six-Day War, the rise of Golda Meir, and the increasing threats from Fatah and the PLO.
