Are Public Displays of Judaism a Bad Idea?

Are Public Displays of Judaism a Bad Idea? We are going to be sharing a video from Chabad.org. Before that, however, we took a poll and solicited comments. Here are some of the thoughts we received via X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok.

Atomic History

In El Paso there was a man who was part of the Nuclear Weapons Program. He also worked on the ICBM project. Then, the technology he worked on in the ICBM project became the framework for the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo projects. 

This same man was also a prisoner of war when he was shot down in April 1953 while on a mission over North Korea. He also served in Vietnam. He was involved in the Cuban Missile Crisis. 

Who am I talking about? Master Sergeant Roy E. Aldridge.
