We Rember
This week we remember IDF Reserve Master Sergeant Tzvi Marantz, 32, of Bnei Adam, Israel. Master Sergeant Marantz served in the 5460th support unit of the 460th Brigade in October 2024 when he was tragically killed alongside two other soldiers by an explosive device in northern Gaza. Master Sergeant Marantz left behind a wife and three children. He now rests in Mount Herzl Cemetery. May his sacrifice and philanthropy be forever remembered.
