IDF033 “The Patrol”

A three-man section moves through an Arab neighbourhood or perhaps along a disputed border area. The NCO is charge is a ‘regular’, his two comrades are both conscripts.

Note the variety of weapons carried back in the 1970’s...

The section leader carries the CAR 15 Assault Rifle, the standing conscript carries an AK47... Before and during the 1973 Yom Kippur Warthe Israelis captured thousands of these excellent Assault Weapons and put them to good use.

The kneeling conscript has the M16 M203 rifle with the underslung grenade launcher.
