A special tombstone has been erected in memory of the missing soldiers, in the military cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, inside the section of "The Missing Soldiers". The coin is also dedicated to our quest for peace; for the right of the Jewish people to live in freedom in their own land, in peace and independence, which has cost the lives of our soldiers.
