Severely injured as a baby from rocket shrapnel, Shila Naamat is showing the terrorists who the winner is.

In March 2002, 20-month-old Shila Naamat was playing on the balcony of his house when a Palestinian terrorist rocket hit his home.

Shila’s leg was so severely wounded, he needed numerous surgeries and had a piece of platinum fitted into his leg.

But Shila doesn’t allow his injuries to stop him from fulfilling his dream of serving in the IDF.

Learn about his story and what Shila hopes to accomplish while serving the Jewish state!
