Bibi sent yearbook by alumni from Philadelphia high school
Some suburban Philadelphia high school alumni say they have sent a 1960s yearbook to one of their most famous classmates, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Classmates from Cheltenham High School’s Class of 1973 sent Mr Netanyahu his 1967 yearbook. He left school around the time of the Six-Day War in June 1967 and joined theIsrael Defence Forces, causing him to miss out on graduation and his yearbook.
None of the four classmates knew Mr Netanyahu, but they sent him a note congratulating him on winning his fourth term. They say he responded with a personal card, thanking them and saying the yearbook brought back fond memories.
