Maj.Gen (ret.) Yair Golan Northern Cmd, Vice CGS. Pt 2

Yair Golan’s father was a career Army Colonel and his brother enlisted in the Paratroop Brigade, so when his time came he too went Airborne and rose to the second-highest position in the IDF. Major General Golan commanded an infantry brigade, the Lebanon border division, the West Bank, the Home Front and the Northern Command, before becoming Vice Chief and a finalist for the top job of Ramatkal, or CGS, which he probably lost due to one of his qualities - an outspoken integrity. Thoughtful and creative, he later entered politics and served as a Deputy Minister in 2021-22.
