Major Nadav Maisles, commander of the rescue force
Served in the 13th Battalion from 2005 to 2012 as a soldier, officer and platoon commander. In "Tzuk Eitan" he was in academic studies. With the beginning of the operation, Nadav reported and was appointed commander of the rescue and evacuation force of the Golani brigade. Major Nadav and the force under his command were called dozens of times to rescue casualties and evacuate them. On July 19, 2014, many of the commanders of the brigade and its fighters were injured. Every time Major Nadav heard on the communication network about an incident in which his friends were injured, he arrived at the scene, sometimes on foot and under enemy fire, and sometimes even split the force to rescue the wounded. Many lives were saved thanks to his work.
