Precious Cargo

I was at the Kosel one afternoon and saw this picture unfolding in such a natural way. If you visit the Kosel on a steady basis, it’s common to see chayalim attending swearing-in ceremonies. They’re usually in uniform but not fully armed. In this picture, a group of religious soldiers, guns slung low and tzitzis swinging, were attending a promotion ceremony. When the ceremony was over it was time to daven and they started carrying out a sefer Torah for leining.
