David never lost sight of his memories of World War II and devoted himself to memorializing the bravery of the 30,000 Jewish soldiers who fell in the Polish army. On his initiative, the outstanding monument in their memory was established at the military cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem. In the words of Ephraim Kaye of Yad Vashem, David’s story of rebirth “is one of unprecedented creativity, courage and self-sacrifice that is the essence of Israel today.” This inspiring autobiography is a must-read.
