Just My Israel — photo status

AN FASCINATING HISTORIC PHOTO: Kever Rochel 1939. Two standard-issue British army bell tents, heavily utilized for mobile field operations during the Mandate era, sit in the foreground. They served as temporary military checkpoints and guard posts to protect travelers from the frequent clashes and structural sabotage that plagued the region's main highway. The man dressed in a sharp Western suit was likely a plainclothes official monitoring the area alongside the tented garrison. On the left, an early vintage transit bus is parked along the ancient Derech Chevron Road. During the widespread unrest of the late 1930s, the British military actively organized and escorted rows of buses to transport security forces and civilians safely between Yerushalayim and Beit Lechem.
