Dear Rov: I am a member of a great and known Kolel, learning Torah for years. As the rest of our many traditional Torah learners, we abstain from any of the Zionistic celebrations of Yom Ha’atzmaut completely. Yet, I’m debating on a personal issue that applies only to my close family. We recently became aware that we are related to the Tzahal Hero major Roi Klein A’H, who was a Torah learner and on 2006 sacrificed his life by jumping and covering with his body a thrown grenade, while screaming Shema Yisrael. He saved the life of many soldiers next to him. The members of my family want to make a recognition act during Yom Hazikaron (Remembrance day before Yom Haatzmaut), in a Orthodox but Zionistic shul, that I always avoid. Can I attend?

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that you should attend.
