Sinai Remembered
Friends and family occasionally recall the story of how Yuval replaced a radiator in a rented jeep in the middle of our 4x4 trek across the Sinai Penisula in 1978. It is truly legendary. In 1979 Israel and Egypt signed a peace treaty in which Israel agreed to withdraw from the entirety of the Sinai Peninsula. As Israel's withdrawal neared its conclusion in April 1982, I wrote this article. It is based on the detailed letter I had written to family shortly after we returned from our desert adventure.
