Interesting Letter by Rabbi Moshe Feinstein - Call to Assist the Kaminetz Yeshiva in Jerusalem in Building a Bomb Shelter - Kislev 1973
Letter handwritten and signed by R. Moshe Feinstein. New York, 9th Kislev 1973.
Call to assist the Kaminetz Yeshiva in building a bomb shelter in the aftermath of the 1973 Yom Kippur War: "The Kaminetz Yeshiva in Jerusalem is well-known… R. Yitzchak Sheiner has now arrived here from Jerusalem… regarding a very urgent matter of life and death concerning the yeshiva students, i.e. building a bomb shelter for protection during war, which they do not have. Although we trust G-d that he will bestow peace, this is still important…". R. Moshe ends with a blessing for those who will donate to this cause.
R. Moshe Feinstein (1895-1986), foremost Halachic authority in the United States, was the leader of Orthodox Jewry, chairman of the Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah and dean of the Tiferet Yerushalayim yeshiva in New York. He authored: Responsa Igrot Moshe, Dibrot Moshe - Talmudic novellae and Darash Moshe - novellae on the Torah.
