Known famously for his left eye-patch, Dayan was a military leader and politician. Spanning a military career of nearly 40 years, he presided over almost every major battle from Israel’s Statehood in 1948 until the 1973 Yom Kippur War. In his last post as Foreign Minister, he negotiated the peace treaty with Egypt from 1977-1979.
