PIKUD HA'OREF (Home Front Command):
*The Israeli Home Front Command is a relatively recent Israel Defense Forces regional command, created in February 1992 following the Gulf War, which was the first war since the 1948 Arab-Israeli War where the Home Front faced a significant threat. Until the establishment of the Command, responsibility for the Home Front fell under the Civilian Defense's Chief Officer Corps Command and under Regional Defense. During that time, the three regional commands had their own home front commands. After the first Persian Gulf War, these organizations were unified and the Home Front Command was created.
How the Color was Chosen-
Orange. Orange is recognized worldwide as the color of rescue and extraction. In the year 2000 Home Front Command chief of staff, Ilan Harari, decided to consolidate all the soldiers and officers to one color Beret to create identification with the global extraction color and to give a sense of pride for soldiers. The shade was chosen by Harari’s wife.
