Marva

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marva is a program in the Israel Defense Forces that allows young Jews to learn and experience the basics of IDF and Israeli life. Beginning in 1982, Marva operated out of a base in the Galilee, although it now is based at Sde Boker. It was originally associated with Gadna, youth battalions, which are now part of the Israeli Education and Youth Corps. Marva is open to anyone from ages 18 to 28 and speaks some Hebrew.

The program lasts eight weeks long. Each week you are stationed at a different base. These bases include: Sde Boker, Bislach, out in the field, Wingate, Latrun, Michve Alon and Nitzana.
