It was June 7, 1967, and there they stood, in front of the locked, looming gate these battle-weary soldiers who suddenly found themselves leading the way to liberating the Kosel. The abandoned Wall loomed up just on the other side of the gate, but although they’d come this far, it was out of reach. They tried to move the heavy iron handle, but the gate wouldn’t give.

The key was inserted into the lock. The gate swung open. The way to the Kosel was clear.
