Ira offers a powerful reflection on service, identity, and the lasting impact of war.<\/p>\n

Ira Kohler served in the IDF\u2019s 890th Battalion of the Paratrooper Brigade. Serving as a Lone Soldier, Ira enlisted in January of 2022. On October 7th<\/sup>, he found himself in the heart of Israel\u2019s hardest battles as he fought in Kibbutz Be\u2019eri. From there, Ira went on to serve over 100 days inside the Gaza Strip.
