Young People Are The Heroes Of This War

I met Shelly (who asked that her last name not be shared) in a shelter in central Israel in March during Israel's war with the Iranian regime. Shelly was 21, confident, radiant  and articulate. I gravitated towards her immediately. When she mentioned she was an officer in the army training to be a combat physician, I knew she'd have important things to say. Once we were out of the shelter, we sat down and talked — and I learned more than I expected. I hope you enjoy this episode.     Credits: Host and Creator: Manya Marcus Editor and Producer: Ben Wallick Associate Editor and Producer: Keren Glicksman Editor: Alexandra Yelderman Logo Design: Samuel Vilemar Outro Music: "לפני השינה" | Anat Malamud Listen on ⁠Spotify⁠  or ⁠Apple Music⁠
