We should be worthy
They all say
Of your bravery
Of your sacrifice
Of the legacy you left behind
But really, we all know
We’d rather be worthy
Of your smile
Most of the soldiers in my company are not religious. As a commander, I have a squad of soldiers working close to me – a driver, someone in charge of communications, and a navigator. They are not religious, but they know that I’m strict about putting on tefillin every day. Even if I don’t have time to daven, I always put on tefillin – every single day.
