This blessing which has accompanied us throughout our history is especially applicable to boys and girls when recruiting to the army. For every parent, this is a moving moment when love and deep concern mingle with a prayer for a son or daughter's safe service and return. The medal is also a tangible wish for a "Bon Voyage" for someone dear, about to embark on a journey. Depicted on the medal on one side is a dove with olive branch in its beak, on the other side is a spring flower with heart-shaped petals, with the sun shining in the background.
