Avraham Yoffe: On Deers and War Avraham Yoffe, 1967. Photo courtesy Jac. de Nijs / Anefo, CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons Avraham Yoffe’s life reads like one of swashbuckling fiction. Born by the Kinneret in the early 20th century, at aged 16 he joined the Haganah. In the thirties he served in the Special Night Squad, a unit run by the British General and Christian Zionist Orde Charles Wingate. Under the rebel Brit’s command, Jews carried out daring operations under nightfall to thwart the actions of Arab insurgents. Yoffe went on to play a significant part in many of Israel’s wars. During the War of Independence, he was battalion commander in the Golan Heights. After the war, he ran an officer’s school until the Six-Day War when he commanded four brigades on the Egyptian front. He and his soldiers daringly passed through terrain considered so tough it was not guarded by the Egyptians because they believed it impossible for tanks to cross through. Avraham’s courage
