Life on the Frontlines

Honoring Service. Preserving Stories. Building Memory.

On October 7th, as the worst attacks on the country were still underway, 300,000 reservists answered the call and reported for duty. They lost friends. They made impossible choices. And then they came home — to work, to family, to school pickup. And then again, back to the front. Back and forth, neither here nor there.

Our mission: To preserve their story.

What We Do

Life on the Frontlines has launched the first-of-its-kind global digital archive to record, preserve, and share the unfiltered testimonies of Israeli reservists, building bridges of understanding, healing, and remembrance across generations, communities, and humanity.

Using long-form podcast-setting conversations with professional interviewers, we aim to create the largest oral history archive of Israeli reservists at battle.
