Chris Boonzaier Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 He served in the Rebellion and South West Africa beforehand, so there should be a card for SWA in the archives as well.Many English speaking South Africans transfered to the british Army after SWA and were commisioned, maybe that was the case with his brother.
