Company C: An American's Life as a Citizen-Soldier in the Israeli ArmyWhen American born Haim Watzman immigrated to Israel, he was drafted into the army and, after eighteen months of compulsory service, was assigned to Company C, the reserve infantry unit that would define the next twenty years of his life. From 1984 until 2002, for at least a month a year, Watzman, who had never aspired to military adventure, was a soldier.

When American-born Haim Watzman immigrated to Israel, he was drafted into the army and, after eighteen months of compulsory service, was assigned to Company C, the reserve infantry unit that would define the next twenty years of his life. From 1984 until 2002, for at least a month a year, Watzman, who had never aspired to military adventure, was a soldier.

Watzman was a soldier as he adjusted to his new country, raised his children, and pursued a career as a writer and translator. At times he defended his adopted country's borders; at other times he patrolled beyond them, or that gray area, the occupied territories. A religiously observant Jew who opposed Israel's presence in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, he served in uniform in conflicts that he demonstrated against in civilian clothes. Throughout, he developed a deep and abiding bond with the diverse men of Company C--a fellowship that cemented his commitment to reserve service even as he questioned the occupation he was enforcing.

In this engrossing account of the first Intifada, the period of the Oslo Accords, and Israel's reoccupation of the West Bank as lived by citizen-soldiers in the field, Watzman examines our obligations to country, friends, family, and God--and our duty to protect our institutions even as we fight to reform them.

Perfect fit for 2019 Jeep 3.2L engine
Size: (Pack of 1)
No way to really know how a filter is doing without a close examination AFTER it is used, but then the amount of debris trapped by a filter depends on how much debris is generated by the engine. But this filter looks to be quality constriction and is rated to 15,000 miles using synthetic oil. The brand is well known and has been in business for many decades, trusted by many.

Excellent, well built filter at a low price
Size: (Pack of 1)
An excellent build quality filter, especially for the money. Definitely top three along with Mobil-One and WIX filters. However, the regular WIX/NAPA Gold has much better filtration efficiency at smaller microns. The WiX XP has much better dirt capacity than either, but actually has lower filtration efficiency than regular WIX. Both are better in their own ways than the Purolator Boss at a few dollars more, but this is still MILES better than Fram or Bosch or STP (or god forbid, SuperTech), etc. and usually the best at a low price on Amazon. If you run long change intervals like 7,500-10,000mi, spring the couple extra dollars for the WIX XP for the dirt capacity. If you want the absolute best filtration efficiency (me) for a 3,000-5,000mi interval, get the regular WIX/NAPA Gold. I don't recommend change intervals longer than 10,000mi, though I still use Mobil One Extended (best value, 20,000mi rated) or Amsoil Signature Series (25,000mi rated but expensive) for the extra protection.

Good OEM replacement, but check the contents
Size: (Pack of 1)
This filter was perfect for my 2020 ram 1500, however I had to get a replacement because the gasket was not included in the box as delivered. I contacted the seller and they replaced it within two days. The replacement unit had both the filter, and the gasket in the box it should've been.
