Pre-Enlistment Instructor (Gadna)

You prepare future recruits for the IDF before they even enlist, through the Gadna program. Your main job is commanding a squad of trainees during Gadna week — teaching weapons handling, ranges, fieldcraft, navigation, marches, battle heritage, and how the IDF works, on top of talks about values and motivation to serve. There are three tracks inside this role: Youth Commander at a Gadna base, an Education Coordinator working with civilian schools, and a National Task Force Commander with the Nahal youth movement.
