Mother of flight school cadet killed in crash: ‘What will we do without you?’
The mother of a 19-year-old military flight school cadet killed in yesterday’s light plane crash in the south has written a eulogy for her son.
“You set out to serve with such joy and hope. I kept my fears to myself,” Shibolet Ben-Bassa writes. “I didn’t want to stop your momentum and commitment.
“God, why, why you? I don’t understand… What will we do without you?”
Cpl. Lihu Ben-Bassa was killed during a routine training flight alongside his instructor Maj. (res.) Itay Zayden. The military has launched an investigation.
