A Greater Share of Honour

Greeff, Jack. A Greater Share of Honour
. Just Done Publishers, 2008. Second edition. . "This is the first personal account of Recce operations during the South African bush war, by one of the top and most experienced Special Forces officers. His adventures reveal some of the most brilliantly planned and executed special operations in the history of the SADF. . As a young staff sergeant in the Recces, Jack Greeff became one of the most decorated soldiers in the SADF. Leading two-man reconnaissance patrols deep into enemy held territories and operating under the noses of the enemy, they collected vital strategic information on enemy movements and installations. Using the information gathered, he led raiding parties to the targets to execute what were probably the biggest and most daring acts of sabotage in recent military history. The author also tells in detail how men, both black and white, trained together and fought a common enemy to create one of the most respected Special Forces units of its time."
