Henry Mandel (1920-2015), a crewman aboard the Jewish Illegal
Immigrant ship Abril/Ben Hecht, a prisoner in Acre fortress and a
volunteer for the Israeli Army during the 1948 Arab - Israeli War,
was an Orthodox Jew whose reminiscences provide a uniquely
illuminating perspective on the creation of the Jewish state.
Mandel smuggled in electric batteries to prisoners planning an
escape from Acre Prison. After being released, Mandel helped set-up
a secret bazooka shell plant in New York which was reassembled in
Israel with his assistance as a foreign volunteer. Personal
narratives of the Ben Hecht crew are complemented by editorial
historical analysis.
