By Cantor Benjamin Z. Maissner.

On November 29,1962 I was privileged to establish a strategic point in Israel on top of Mt. Gilboa, namely what later became Kibbutz Maaleh Gilboa. This clip was taken on the day of settlement with pomp and ceremony.

I was honoured to carry the Chuppah bringing theTorah into our midst since this was a religious settlement watching over the city of Jenin. The tall boy with the glasses is me.

Enjoy the warm memories I carry with me day and night.
