The Palestine Police Force Certificate Of Appointment SPECIAL CONSTABLE 1946 - The Palestine Police was established in 1920 as part of the civilian administration of the British Mandate. 300 of the 2000 officers were Jewish. During the 1936-1939 Arab revolt in Palestine, additional forces were established, including the Jewish Settlement Police, which was a division of the Notrim. This is Joseph Glushwitzky's I.D. card, as a member of the Jewish settlement Police, protecting Yishuvim. That division had grown to 2000 members by the time he joined. The training they got was especially important, once the war broke out in 1948. Very good condition. 12x8 cm. Item from the collections of Jacob Yablok - VirtualJewishmuseum.com. The item is placed in a quality proactive nylon sleeve and can be easily and safely taken out from the display page. Displayed on a thin cardboard sheet with an explanation on the background of Israel's flag.
