Retired American Generals and Admirals Visit Israel
A delegation of retired American generals and admirals visited Israel this month in order to meet with senior political and military officials, understand the security challenges that Israel faces and learn more about the U.S.-Israel strategic alliance.
The delegation was organized by JINSA, the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs. The retired U.S. officers visited all of Israel’s borders and were briefed by senior IDF commanders on all fronts.
Here are a few photos from their trip:
