Formed in 1916 as The Rhodesia Native Regiment, its troops were blooded with honour in the East African campaign.& Disbanded in 1919, the regiment was re-formed in 1940 during World War II as The Rhodesian African Rifles, seeing action in Burma.& In the 1950s, the regiment distinguished itself further during the Malayan Emergency.& During the 1960s and 1970s, the regiment was at the forefront of hostilities in the bloody Rhodesian bush war.& Ironically, it was after Zimbabwean independence in 1980, that the RAR's finest hour came, when, fighting for their erstwhile enemy, Mugabe, the soldiers of the RAR defeated Nkomo's invading ZIPRA armies at the battles of Entumbane in Bulawayo.
