Heartwarming story from Nahal Hareidi

Arutz Sheva brings us this nice story:

Soldiers Fly U.S. Mom To Son's Army Ceremony 03:20 Feb 23, '05 / 14 Adar 5765
(IsraelNN.com) Soldiers secretly raised money for the mother of an American IDF soldier to attend her son's ceremony marking his completion of a medic's course. Eliyahu Gislick's mother substituted for the commander to fasten the medic symbol on his uniform.Gislick had completed the course in a Nahal Haredi unit and was shocked when the commander announced his mother had come from Chicago for the ceremony. Although he was standing at attention, he broke ranks and hugged his mother as his unit applauded.His unit's commander, who is not observant, had phoned Gislick's mother to inform her of the ceremony. When she said she did not have the money for the air fare, the officer raised the money from soldiers on the base.

Daaaaat's Niiiiiiice! (insert Southern drawl)
