IDF Tour Guide: The Air Force Museum


Today we’re introducing a new series: the IDF Tour Guide. Each week, a professional tour guide will take you to a different museum or heritage site that deals with IDF history and heroism. To kick off the series, we’re going to the unique Air Force Museum near Be’er Sheva.
The Air Force Museum is the only museum in Israel where the entire staff is made up of soldiers on active duty, including tour guides who speak five different languages – Hebrew, English, Spanish, French and Russian. The logistic workers, plane mechanics, administrators and photographers are all soldiers as well.
Now, to introduce your personal tour guide: Cpl. Rom Aloni, 20 years-old, serves as a guide in the museum as part of his regular army service.
