Ben DunkelmanBen Dunkelman (1913-1997) was a Canadian Jew who became a war hero for his efforts in World War II. He went for active duty in the allied Operation Overlord, where he fought his way through some of the roughest battlefields of all time. Deeply attached to his Jewish roots he decided to emigrate to Israel when it gained independence from the British in the spring of 1948. There, he became the commander of the 7th Brigade. He was also in charge of Operation Dekel which lasted from July 8-18. He has written an autobiography called Dual allegiance : an autobiography (ISBN 0887801277). He also stars in a video - "Ben Dunkelman: The Reluctant Warrior". He was the son of David Dunkelman, founder of Tip Top Tailors.
