"On the agenda: Workouts, target practice and rappelling, as well as Torah, Hasidism classes.
Pre-military preparatory courses have been part and parcel with the IDF experience for some time now, so much so that various options have sprung up over the years. A young person facing enlistment can choose from a religious, secular, or Druze preparatory course. There is even a prep course for religious girls. This year, another pre-military preparatory course joins the 36 that already exist – a haredi preparatory course.
'This is a course tailored for haredi boys leaving their frameworks and who want to enlist in any case,' said the head of the prep course, Rabbi Moshik Ben-Or. 'The whole summer we advertised and built a lobby of rabbis to support the course. Until now, 15 people have already signed up. In my estimation, there is enormous potential for high levels of haredi participants.'"
