This is the text of my eldest son, written a week after October 7th. His unit was one of the first to engage in battle that morning; they repelled an attack by terrorists from the "Nukhba" special forces on the Urim base on the border with Gaza. He was wounded in that battle.

(Baruch HaShem, he returned to service after two months and is now fighting in Gaza)

The original text is in Hebrew, the translation is mine.
