Ammunition Hill: A Fitting Site of Immense Historic Proportion

November 11, 2021 | Dr. Fredric Cohen

A fierce nighttime battle.

Remarkable valor and determination.

An entrenched and well armed enemy.

A strategic and definitive stronghold.

The hill necessary to liberate Jerusalem after
2,000 years from the shackles of intolerance
and oppression.

Jewish liberation of our Ancient Homeland.

A modern story of Biblical proportions.

This is Ammunition Hill.

A chance to honor our Jewish veterans who fought
for freedom and democracy against tyranny and
oppression over many years and for many
countries.

A chance to personally honor our own family heroes,
as well as all our Jewish brethren who had the
courage and conviction to stand up for what is
right.

This was our mindset upon dedicating plaques on
October 11th at Ammunition Hill with our JNF family.

Emotional. Grateful. Thankful. And Most Satisfying.

A rightful site for Remembrance and Commemoration.

A fitting site of Immense Historic Proportion.

Fredric and Lenard Cohen

Both Lenard and Fredric Cohen, brothers from Philadelphia involved in JNF-USA and serving board members, are connecting generation honoring their father, father-in-law and Fred’s so. Currently serving in United States Army as a army doctor.
Three plaques were dedicated during the beautiful ceremony at Ammunition Hill, connecting generations of Jewish warriors to the Land of Israel .
