The Hillel students and faculty at Harkham Hillel Hebrew Academy took part in a true Hero’s welcome as Major Moshe Scheinfeld surprised his three children during the schools Purim Chagiga after spending nine months in active duty is Afghanistan.
As he showed Hakoras Hatov Hatov to the Kehilla for supporting his family while away, he advised all the students that his pillar of strength during his time of service was when he would sit down after an 18 hour day of duty and learn Pirkei Avos and Tehillim.
Harkham Hillel Hebrew Academy is a Jewish Orthodox Day School in Beverly Hills, California.

Nice that he was able to come home to his family for Purim. However, Chymee, I doubt that there’s too much fresh air in the Los Smogangeles area.
