"DIE BUFFEL STRUIKEL" LJ BOTHMA

"DIE BUFFEL STRUIKEL"  LJ BOTHMA

This is the story of 32 Battalion and its soldiers. Interweaving his own position as 32 Battalion patrol leader with the history and activities of the Battalion, L J Bothma provides an a comprehensive and engaging account of the difficulties and challenges faced by honing ill-disciplined troops and factions into a cohesive fighting unit. Plagued by problems of inexperience and poorly equipped, this unit had a difficult time against the more experienced and well equipped SWAPO insurgents. This well researched and documented book reads like a story with the very personal accounts of individuals. Bothma is scathing of the politicians and others of the time and the manner in which 32 Battalion was treated. The book is profusely illustrated with photographs.
