The 14th Armored Brigade stationed along the Sinai front during the Yom Kippur War engaged in among the fiercest and most significant battles during the 1973 war. Now, for the first time, the stories of the heroism and courage of the brigade members on the battlefield will be presented in an innovative artistic format, the play "14." that will be staged on September 13th, at the Yad LaShiryan armored corps memorial in Latrun, during a special event commemorating 50 years since brigade's heroic battles in the Yom Kippur War. Ahead of the event, (ret.) Major General Amnon Reshef, who commanded the 14th Brigade during the Yom Kippur War, spoke to KAN's Naomi Segal about the dissonance on the eve of the war between the situation on the front and the directives from the upper command; the battles; and the heroism of the soldiers.
