I'm grateful to say that we won't be having 1200 people and I don't expect any hovering helicopters - but still what an exciting wedding that must have been!

I was living in the "Singles housing" area and sharing an apartment with a guy that was serving in Lebanon at the time (a rather long time as I recall). In fact, the first time I actually met the guy was the day before he was to be married. He arrived back in the afternoon sometime, tossed his M-16 under his bed (yes, under the bed, not under the mattress), took off his boots, and literally fell into his bed (still in uniform, etc) and slept solidly until the next morning. Then he woke up, showered, and we went to daven. A few hours later was his wedding! And what a wedding it was - seems he was marrying the daughter of a minister in the government at the time. It seemed like half the army came to the area of our little kibbutz that day. Hundreds of soldiers with all sorts of vehicles, and 4 helicopters circling around and above us for the duration of the wedding. Later I was told that among the 1200 wedding guests were a goodly percentage of the members of Knesset and the extreme security was in place for them!Markhttp://twitter.com/Marksoflanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386256495088401444.post-44529520772969194942010-11-07T03:18:05.962+02:002010-11-07T03:18:05.962+02:00What a beautiful gift, to have a wedding in your f...What a beautiful gift, to have a wedding in your family. I too am a soldiers mother. I pray for many blessings on your son and his new bride. The army keeps everyone, guessing, nothing is "for sure" I hope you navigate these little problems and have a joyous day!kathleennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386256495088401444.post-25007439771841988802010-11-07T00:37:04.241+02:002010-11-07T00:37:04.241+02:00Mazel Tov!Mazel Tov!rickismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817042750959998664noreply@blogger.com
