The New Robert's Rules of Order by Mary A De Vries
At an Israeli kibbutz in the Galilee, a grandfather turns Boaz, his shy, introverted grandson, into Bo, an extroverted Fighter who joins an army terrorist termination unit and becomes a sergeant.
At age 24, after several attempts to find a bride in the army, Bo falls in love with a 16-year-old girl at his kibbutz, lives with her, and finances her 3-year Hi-Tech course. While he is on a secret mission in Marrakesh, his live-in girlfriend betrayed him with an officer. She claimed they only indulged in mutual masturbation.
Bo thrashed the officer, a severely punishable act that violates the first commandment of all armies: Thou shall worship officers as gods. The Army hushed up the incident, fearing an open trial would reveal that many officers engaged in this activity including Israel's national hero, Moshe Dayan. Publicity would encourage religious boys and girls to avoid service in the army. The Army cracked down on this activity which resulted in a wave of complaints by female soldiers and resignations by officers.
This book is full of wife-hunting advice, ideas about the evolution of culture, and insightful comments about political, religious and social conflicts in Israel today.
