Cadets dismissed from officers' course for going to synagogue instead of class

Several IDF soldiers have been dismissed from an officers' course for going to synagogue instead of to class, and the National Religious MK's are furious about it. The lesson was moved to an earlier time at the last moment, and therefore coincided with the regular time for the shacharit prayer. The soldiers – who are from the Gefen Battalion – prayed instead of attending the lesson.MK Zevulun
