David,

I corrected the spelling of your uncles name. Its a side-effect of transliterating back from a Hebrew text. My apologies.

I also corrected my mis-recollection of where my grandfather couldnt get to for the annual gathering.

 Im reluctant to question the word of someone who was actually involved in the story, and would first try to find a manner of  explaining how his memory could be at odds with the official report. A gush is a block of settlements. Today, Gush Etzion is defined as starting in the valley right below Ramat Rachel. Is it possible Ramat Rachel was considered part of the gush back then?

(I will not edit the opening of this post until we figure this out, and I wouldnt touch the quote either way.)

-mi

a few comments:

1. in doctor solomon blooms letter he reffers to a siege on ramat rachel which the 35 were trying to lift this is incorrect the seige was on gush etzion and that is very clearly documented with no room for any doubt

2. the rest of the story is very moving and pretty accurate.

3. my uncle was on of the 35 after whom i am named david zwebner (and not TZOVNER)

please correct this mistake.

4.the annual gathering of the surviving families of the lamed hei taked place at their graves on mt. hertzel in jerusalem where there bodies were interred after a state was established in 1949.

David Zwebner
