No one does it quite like our IDF boys do ('Masa Kumta')

The final step for IDF ground combat Units is the grueling "Masa Kumta" or Beret March.

During this overnight trek, soldiers must march between 20-45 miles in full combat gear, carrying stretchers, depending on the demands of their specific unit.

Only after completing the march are recruits formally inducted into the IDF and awarded the coveted beret of their combat brigade.

The 'Masa Kumta' represents the culmination of months of rigorous training, testing both the physical and mental fortitude of these young men and women as they transition from recruits to decorated soldiers ready to defend the nation.
