As a Special-Forces commander, Sharon was on the front-and in front of his men - performing daring assaults that saved Israel in both the 1967 and 1973 wars.

This leads to the conclusion, it is time to finish retreating. Not one step back! Such should now be our main slogan. ... Henceforth the solid law of discipline for each commander, Red Army soldier, and commissar should be the requirement - not a single step back without order from higher command.
