    1 Oppenheim , Moshe (Moshe Op) Born 25 December 1926 in Niederohle, Germany Made Aliya in 1939 Joined the Palmach in 1943 Joined the Palyam in 1945 This is the Way it Was The episode of the weapons of “J” Company, HaPortzim Battalion, Harel Brigade The story starts with a prelude… I made Aliya from Germany when I was 13 years old. This was just three months after the start of World War II. I arrived in Haifa on December 20, 1939. My brother, who was three years older than I, made Aliya three months earlier within the framework of Youth Aliya. My parents and two sisters were killed by the Germans, but this only became known to me some time later. In 1940 I was accepted as a student in the Max Fein Technical High School in Tel Aviv and started to learn metalworking. In 1941-42 there seemed to be a danger that the Germans might invade Palestine from the direction of Egypt and the sea, under the command of Field Marshal Rommel. I was a bit young but enlisted with almost the whole class, in the Hagana. I swore my loyalty to a fellow called Al Dema in the Borochov quarter of Givataim. Al Dema was the director of the Herzliya Gymnasium in Tel Aviv. We began training, with light weapons during the day and had field practice on Saturdays. We often stood watch at strategic locations to make certain that the Germans didn't try to land paratroopers there. The peak of our service was during the vacation period of the summer of 1942 when we were taken to an English camp at Tel Litvinsky and swore our loyalty to the English monarch.

  • Rainfall Anomaly Over the Lee Side of Mount Carmel (Israel) and the Associated Wind Field
    748 JOURNAL OF APPLIED METEOROLOGY VOLUME 36 Rainfall Anomaly over the Lee Side of Mount Carmel (Israel) and the Associated Wind Field YAIR GOLDREICH AND ARIEL FREUNDLICH Department of Geography, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel PINHAS ALPERT Department of Geophysics and Planetary Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel (Manuscript received 25 September 1995, in ®nal form 17 October 1996) ABSTRACT Yagur and other rain gauge stations located on the lee side of Mount Carmel in Israel experience much higher amounts of precipitation than those measured on the windward side of the mountain at a similar altitude and more rain than stations on the mountain itself. This phenomenon is consistently observed, and in the current study it is investigated primarily by means of simultaneous rain±wind observations and by using a two-dimen- sional simpli®ed orographic model. Orographic model simulations suggest the existence of a ¯ow disturbance at the lee of Mount Carmel, which might cause local rain enhancement. Results from the anemograph placed at Yagur, along with other wind measurements in the Carmel region, support the ®ndings of this model. Ob- servations depict the disturbed ¯ow that occurred at the lee of Mount Carmel and was associated with rain enhancement. The channeled ¯ow caused horizontal convergence, which is in accordance with the second hypothesis. Observations during the rainy periods indicate that the rain enhancement in Yagur is associated with the ridge-parallel ¯ow on the lee side of the mountain. It is hypothesized that the horizontal convergence of the leeside ¯ow with the ¯ow over the mountain causes the local enhancement of precipitation.
