Young Men & Women's Hebrew Assoc. Hosts Cadets

The staff of the Shorefront (Brooklyn) Young Men and Women’s Hebrew Association (YM/W HA) hosted 63 Russian-Language Cadets, providing them the opportunity to speak in small groups with Russian-speaking residents of the area, including a number of WWII veterans. The Cadets then had the chance to sample Russian cuisine for lunch and engage in additional activities while immersed in a Russian-speaking environment. Cadets developed a greater understanding of the Russian émigré community in the United States and made a positive impression on the local community.
