First Sergeant Major nadav lishatzinsky
Nadav, the son of Suzana and Nachum, born in Argentina, grew up as the youngest son after two older siblings, Gabi and Smadar. Suzana: “It made him grow up faster. He was independent and very family oriented. He loved music and reading very much and he always made sure to have a book near him. He was a sharp guy and sharp in Spanish. I remember that Nadav loved speaking Spanish at home.”
Nachum: “Nadav didn’t speak much about the army. I know that he had a good time with close friends, some of whom unfortunately he lost during their service. After his death, his girlfriend, Yaara, gave us letter that Nadav wrote for himself where he described his intense fears and the sadness that hit him when his friends were killed. He was a peace advocate and didn’t like the army, but nevertheless he wanted to make progress in his military career. At Nadav’s funeral we asked for there not to be shots of honor fired and we also didn’t want to be interviewed. It was important for me to see him before he was buried and that’s what happened. Suzana preferred not to see, and I understand her.”
