This is Charlie Warren's account of his service in the Rhodesian Light Infantry (RLI). A recipient of the Bronze Cross of Rhodesia (BCR), the author is highly qualified to tell this story. You will swept into a vicarious experience of the daily life of a member of this highly effective, elite unit that was involved in most of the hottest action during the Rhodesian war.
Charlie relates tales from his service with 3 Commando (The Lovers), RLI in their Fire Force role as well as of his (reluctant) qualification as a parachutist at 1 Parachute Battalion (SADF) and his further qualification as a dispatcher.
His stories of barracks life are interesting and well written, but the stories of combat and operations are where the real talent of this author is evident. He takes you along with him in the K-Car, into contact on the ground. You feel the exhaustion and frustration of combat, the regret and sadness at the loss of comrades. As you share his experiences you will understand his conflicted feelings about his decision not to permit the execution of Robert Mugabe during the time of transition.
