In this heartfelt letter Ben-Gurion applauds the work of the Chabad Movement in organizing a mass Bar Mitzvah celebration held in Kfar Chabad for the sons of soldiers who were killed in the Six Day War. Ben-Gurion writes: "I understand your pain and sorrow and the greatness of your soul in dedicating much time to your fellow widows."
