WOW! Thank you for posting!
I learned in Mir over thirty years ago. Rav Chaim Shmulevitz zt”l and Reb Beinish zt”l were still with us, as was Reb Nochum zt”l. This evening I attended a simchas beis hashoeva where I live, in Phoenix, Arizona, at the new yeshiva high school. The rosh kollel, more than twenty years my junior, learned in Mir for eight years. I told him, “The closest I’ve ever been to Olom Ha’emes in this world was during the simchas beis hashoeva each Sukkos in Mir.” He was just a cheder yingele when I was a yungerman in Mir, but he solemnly nodded his head in understanding. Rav Avrohom Kalmanovitz zt”l was visiting from Mir in Brooklyn one year. He gave a gevaldige shmooze in the sukkah outside the beis medrash one year, I think it was 1977, before my chasuna. The very abbreviated rikudim this evening brought tears to my eyes, remembering chol ha’moed Sukkos in Mir. Oy, mi yitein lonu, that I could turn back the clock to that simcha and kedushah in the Mir beis medrash over three decades ago. Ribono Shel Olom, Attoh sakum, terachem Zion, ki eis l’chinona ki vo moed.
Rav Avrohom Kalmanowitz was nifter in the mid 60s. Maybe it was R Shraga Moshe?
I just checked out the Crown Heights video after not being there for maaaany years!
That does bring back memories, I cant believe that place is still rocking!
Thanx for posting!

#3 — Please be moychel my shvacher zikoron. It was Rav Shmuel Berenbaum zt”l, not Rav Avrohom Kalmanovitz, who visited Mir Yerushalayim during Sukkos in either 1976 or 1977.
