Captain Or Ben-Yehuda of the Israeli Defense Forces has cemented a legacy that will endure well past her lifetime. The young, decorated IDF Captain was in charge of a company of soldiers when they were violently attacked by nearly two dozen terrorists near the Egyptian border.

Due to her leadership and bravery, she and her men were able to survive. Captain Ben-Yehuda was in charge of the Caracal Battalion which was stationed near the Israeli / Egyptian border. Three suspicious vehicles quickly approached the battalion’s position and Captain Ben-Yehuda along with a driver went to check them out.

As they approached the first vehicle, nearly two dozen armed men opened fire on their position in an ambush attack. Both Captain Ben-Yehuda and her driver were immediately shot in the volley of gunfire.

Despite suffering from a gunshot wound, Captain Ben-Yehuda managed to get on the radio and call for backup, administer first aid to her driver and return several magazines worth of gunfire back at her attackers.

Backup, in the form of several vehicles full of IDF soldiers, arrived on scene, the wounded Captain commanded the responding soldiers and positioned her men to effectively fight back the terrorists.

At this point it was obvious the IDF was going to be able to push back the armed group, and medical personnel wanted to evacuate Captain Ben-Yehuda to treat her gunshot wounds. However, she was unwilling to leave the battlefield until all of the fighting was done.

For her actions and bravery, Captain Ben-Yehuda was awarded Israel’s highest honor, the Medal of Valor.

You guys are weird.

I had to go back and look to see if she had a gun.

After a few minutes of studying her beautiful hair, gorgeous lips and her body indeed, she is apparently holding a gun....

I focused more on her hips, lips and t÷÷÷’s....

[garandgal]

Wow...great story! Everyone, read the article...her Mom was also a decorated IDF Soldier...there is a great picture of them at the end of the article.

[Bobalu]

Israeli warrior vs American social justice warrior.
Or Ben-Yehuda vs Trigglypuff

[volunbeer]

Well played Sir....... well played.

6 Day War.

Anyone who attacks Israel is an idiot.

They have GOD on their side.

[Wilhelm Tell]

That Social Justice Warrior in the picture could sit on a terrorist and instantly crush him to death.

[metmom]

Hard to believe they both are allegedly part of the human race.

Well, not for the Israeli captain.

What a role model.

[onona]

But wait ! What happened to no women in combat positions ??

That's a little sarc for the US peeps.

The Caracal Battalion is an all female-squad of soldiers serving on the Israel-Egyptian border.

ISIS jihadists got a taste of Jewish fighting valor and they were beaten by a woman!

That’s a blow to Arab masculinity as well as the jihadist psyche.

Sinai is a terror-infested region and the IDF is more than up to the task of defending the borders.

IWI X95, a derivative of the Micro Tavor and original Tavor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IWI_X95

The Israelis are phasing out their M16 and M4 variants in favor of it.

[Spktyr]

Nope. The Israelis don’t issue the TAR-21 or even the full size Tavor.

[Theophilus]

Deuteronomy 22:5
The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

Glad she survived.

[EinNYC]

Incredible bravery. May she reach her 120 years safely.

There are two "co-ed" infantry units in the Israeli military. The Caracal Battalion is one of them. However, they're more like heavily-armed border patrol than direct-action infantry units, and their record reflects that (in that they don't see a whole lot of action). They're assigned to the Egyptian and Jordanian border areas, the only two Arab countries that have peace treaties with Israel. Earlier this year (or last year, can't remember exactly) the Israeli military reviewed their policy and then maintained that women cannot serve in combat units.

As illustrated in post #12, American women are far, far different from Israeli women.

While we may have a few worthy of the IDF joining our services, for every one of them, there are a hundred of those in post #12 joining and demanding equality - without really being equal.

Been there, saw that.

[mad_as_he$$]

Sorry but the article is long on hype and short on facts. Trust me effectiveness depends a lot on where you got shot.

[Joe 6-pack]

I wonder if Corporal Queer knew Ensign Gay from the battle of Midway.

[eartick]

Yes that is what it is. A Marine Captain friend of mine owns one. Slick weapon

Sinai is a terror-infested region and the IDF is more than up to the task of defending the borders.

Defending the borders with armed troops instead of a wall.

What a concept.

Get some training instead of sitting inside a walled in fort or training ground. Some real life and death scenarios defending the homeland.

Hell, I would volunteer to help out down there. Love getting some more sugar sand in my boots.

Arab masculinity

C'mon!

That's an Urban Legend.
