The death of Cpl. Dan Mandal Philipson, a combat soldier in training at the Paratroopers Training Base, who tried to take his own life last week, has been confirmed. Dan was a lone soldier who lived in Kibbutz Be'erot Ya'akov with an "adoptive family" after immigrating from Norway. His funeral will take place at 3:00 PM on Mount Herzl, and his family has asked the public to accompany him on his final journey.
