In 167 B.C.E. Judah Maccabee amassed his army in Judea, attacked the Greeks and won a decisive victory, despite having to battle against the finest Seleucid warriors astride massive elephants.Today, in some history books, there is mention of two unusual soldiers who helped Judah win his victory, not only in the field, but also in the countryside, among the Jewish populace.
These two soldiers were called Galit and Gidon. They were from the future. And they were kids.
