I translated the Hebrew template except two links:

1. Terms of Israel Security (I think that you don't have equivalent project)
2. Acronyms at Israel Defense Forces (This article will be very strange at English...)

All links in this template at Hebrew Wikipedia are blue except the "Military Court of Appeals".
Although I use the Israel Defense Forces article and the official website, some of the translation may be wrong and all of them should be checked.

This template is huge: I came across it used on a two-line stub, where the effect is, needless to say, rather excessive. Surely there's a more sensibly hierarchical way of structuring essentially the same information, without the overkill "single template with everything" effect. Alai 06:56, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think we can make it much smaller by removing words such as 'corps' from the template. I mean, from the section headers it's already clear that it's a core/wing/whatever. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 10:01, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
