Gedolei Yisroel showing their respect for IDF Soldiers killed while defending Eretz Yisroel.

(At least he demonstrates that being an uber-religious Jew has nothing to do with being a righteous, decent human being.)
Where is that qoute from Harav Shlomo Zalman from?
Rav Schach had one aniklech in IDF. Officier in the Paratrooper.
Rav Moshe Feinstein was not at the 1980 knesiah gedolah.
Had he been there I'm sure he would have stood but I'm sure that he or the other attendees been by a similar gathering somewhere in czarist Russia and someone included Russian soldiers in a Kel Moley Rachmim they would have remained standing then too.
