“He wakes up early to grab his bags and return to base.

She wakes up early to have blood drawn, scans, and puts on a good face.

His training is intense, rigorous, and thorough.

She does all forms of treatment for a more hopeful tomorrow.

He is fit to run, shoot, climb, and crawl.

She injects and takes pills, as her supplements begin to sprawl.

He cries at the funerals of his comrades who’ve fallen.

She cries about her losses, disappointments, and pledges they’ll never be forgotten.

He is inspired to protect all because Am Yisrael Chai.

She is inspired to never give up because having a child is always worth the try.

He fights and defends from the ruthless enemy.

She battles and prays to end her infertility.

Two warriors trying to create and protect life.

These two warriors are husband and wife.”
