Background

David "Dudu" Abirgal was born in Golan Heights, Israel. When he was little he was caught in a terrorist attack where a car was blown up by his elementery school and a piece of the car cut Dudu leaving a scar running across his right cheek.

Dudu started playing competitive sports when he got back to school and his coaches started to see that he was a natural leader. This carried over into the playground and the classroom. In middle school he realized the importance of protecting his family. His mom used to joke that you will only ever find Dudu in school or playing sports. When he turned 17 he joined the IDF and was placed in Israeli special forces, then Mossad. Once in Mossad they took his leadership ability to the next level. Beyond the basic weapons training, the put him through an intense weapons training program so that whatever the circumstances, he would be ready to fight.
