Translated from Shona, “Pamwe Chete” literally means “Together Only” or “All Together”. This simple phrase captures the essence of the legend of the Selous Scouts, a tightly knit multiracial unit, unique in its own time and ahead of its own time.

Formed in 1973 by the author, Lieutenant-Colonel Ron Reid-Daly, as the Rhodesian War intensified, the Selous Scout Regiment very soon became on of Africa’s and for that matter, the world’s foremost and ruthless proponents of pseudo operations in guerrilla counter insurgency warfare. During its short seven-year existence, up to Zimbabwe’s independence in 1980, this regiment was to write, with honour, its name into the annals of military history, with its brilliant modus operandi.
