The company was established in the summer of 1942 and was named "Solel Boneh" since it consisted of a group of volunteers who worked for "Solel Boneh". After serving in Egypt, in the Western Desert and in Tripoli and after constructing camps, restoring bridges and installing water-lines, the company was sent in March 1944 to Italy and built three army camps in Naples. Following the Allies' victory the company was transferred to Milan and early in 1946 was returned to the Middle East in preparation for the release of its members. 2X2 cm. Good condition.
