JL;DR SUMMARY The episode explores the lives of Canadian "lone soldiers" serving in the Israel Defense Forces, examining the motivations behind their service and the challenges they face, from homesickness to mental health issues.

  • But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
  • And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
