Former Sayeret Matkal commander recounts 1960s joint training with French airborne unit
Former Sayeret Matkal commander recounts 1960s joint training with French airborne unit The passage provides a personal recollection of early Israeli special‑forces cooperation with a French colonial‑war veteran and mentions a cross‑border training exchange in 1963. While it hints at early intelligence‑military ties that could be relevant to historic foreign‑military influence, it lacks concrete details about current operations, finances, or high‑level officials, limiting its investigative utility. Key insights: Avraham (likely Avraham (Ben‑David?) of Sayeret Matkal) selected the narrator for a joint exchange with French Colonel Albert Merglen.; The exchange involved an eight‑week counter‑guerrilla course at a French parachute commando school in the Pyrenees.; The interaction reflects early Cold‑War era cooperation between Israeli special forces and a French colonial‑war veteran.
