from Historic Military Interviews · host John

This is the story of 17 and 18 year old South African conscripts who would be dragged into the Angola Bush War. We interview members from an armoured reconnaissance unit that participated in the War. We talk about 1 Special Service Battalion and some stories of those that completed training in the armoured unit. We also share some memories and photos of participating in the insurgency war based out of Sector 10 Oshakati and some of the patrols along the Kunene river in Angola and Calueque Dam. We also share some experiences from base camp at Oshakati.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/historic-military-interviews--5668402/support.
