Here's a never-released personal account of the liberation of the Old City of Jerusalem by Gen. Uzi Narkis z"l (of blessed memory), who commanded the liberating forces in June 1967 - filmed by Ashley Lazarus 10 days before General Uzi Narkis passed away in 1997. Music by Yehuda Jordan Kaplan. With thanks to Brig.Gen. Yoram Agmon, who arranged the interview.

Let's go to the videotape.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
