Description: Battalion 101, also known as the Patan Battalion, was established in its current form in 1990. Before the establishment of "Battalion 50", it was called "Battalion 88" and was called the "Parachute Nahal Battalion", due to the fact that service in the battalion was part of the Nahal soldier track, and its soldiers were members of Nahal's core. In 1990, "Battalion 950" in the Nahal Brigade was renamed "Battalion 50", after being transferred from the Paratrooper Brigade. In the Nahal Brigade, "Battalion 50" was given the name of the former "Battalion 950", "Basalt". In the Paratrooper Brigade, a new battalion was established called "Battalion 101", which received the nickname of "Battalion 50" in the paratroopers, "Bastan Battalion". The battalion adopted the number "101" as the name number of the mythical unit Unit 101, which was one of the shapers of the spirit and heritage of the paratroopers. "Battalion 50" and its successor, "Battalion 101" (starting in 1990) fought in all of Israel's wars since the reprisal operations. In Operation Kadesh, the battalion, under the command of Mota Gur, participated in the Battle of Mitla and on November 2, performed the second combat parachute in the IDF at A-Tur, in the southwest of the Sinai Peninsula.[22] Among other things, he also participated in operations: Youth Spring, Rooster 53, Operation Qalqilya, the capture of the Balata refugee camp in the Second Intifada, and more.
