The Story of the Controversial Airborne Assault on Cassinga, 1978. Exhaustive work covering all aspects of the SADF's Operation Reindeer airborne strike against SWAPO targets at Cassinga in 1978, written by the man who led the assault, Col. Jan Breytenbach.

The highest decorated soldier in the South African Defence Force and founder of elite units such as the Special Forces (Recces), 32 (Buffalo) Battalion and the Parachute Battalion, he is a military legend. For the first time, the comprehensive story of one of the largest active paratroop deployments since WW II, and the ensuing heroics that followed, has now been told.

Illustrated with some 60 photographs, detailed maps and the full Fit Chute lists, as well as Colonel Breytenbach's original 20 page handwritten battle orders. A true piece of South African military history and a worthy addition to any enthusiast's library. Softcover edition by Manie Grové Publishing, 2008. 640 pages. New and unread condition.
