The opening as it read in 2020
Machva Alon ( ) (Alon Education and Instructional Center) is an IDF military base located near Safed in the Galilee and near Mg'ar village. It belongs to the Education and Youth Corps and specializes in educational programs. The base was named after Yigal Allon . The base is notable for its ulpan (Hebrew language school). Soldiers whose Hebrew is deemed insufficient by the IDF, consisting mainly of immigrants as well as Druze and Bedouins , are sent to Machva Alon, where they undergo Hebrew instruction together with basic training. Until the 1980s, Machva Alon served as the base for the Bislamach Brigade , but that brigade transferred to a base near Yeruham . The base's goal is to train soldiers for special groups, help them integrate into their service, and become productive citizens of Israel . v t e 32°54′8.5″N 35°25′11.41″E  /  32.902361°N 35.4198361°E  / 32.902361; 35.41983611
