Peretz Rosenberg

In May 1939, he was sent to Romania as part of the Haganah's Gideonim unit to join the crew of the S.S. Atrato 7, an illegal immigration ship eventually seized by the British Mandate authorities near the coast at Shefayim and forced to sail to Haifa.

[3] In May 1943, after undergoing paratrooper training, Rosenberg, using the code name “Corporal Rose,” was dropped in the vicinity of Zabljak in the Durmitor mountain range in Montenegro.

He was part of a British commando and intelligence force under William Deakin tasked with linking up with the partisan group commanded by Josip Broz Tito, later president of Yugoslavia.

[11][12] Due to his technical expertise, Rosenberg helped Tito's men maintain their communications equipment, which led to the establishment of close ties.

[5] In the early days of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Rosenberg served in the Science Corps of the Israel Defense Force and engaged in arms development.

[5] Upon completing his electronic engineering studies at the Technion, Rosenberg returned to farming at Beit Shearim and began to design devices for irrigation and water conservation.

Rosenberg went on to found Ein-Tal, a company specializing in advanced irrigation solutions for greenhouses, orchards and open field agriculture in arid and semi-arid climates.
