SADF stuff

[Spasm]

Stuff I dug out of my trommel. Just for you gents to have a look at.

Hi - Spasm (first name ?) Welcome to GMIC. These interesting pieces would be better on our Forum within the British section - near the top. We specifically cover South African - look at the titles. I would suggest that you re-post there - on this Forum it will get lost with medals.

When you do, tell us a little about yourself and your collecting interests.

p.s. whilst Sth. African viewers will know what these are - I'm afraid the rest of the World won't. Give a brief description of each and the unit involved. Mervyn

Thanks for the welcome.

Are you sure it should be there? It seems to be more of a colonial content. This gear is from the Border Wars in Angola during the 70s

I'm happy to put the picture there if you are sure.

Mervyn,

Well, surprised or what. I've just had a look round your on line shop. Of course you know what these items are.

Sterke en beste wense - if I remember rightly :D

Fantastic stuff Spasm, hat off to you for service in such a legendary unit!!

[Mervyn Mitton]

Spasm (I can't really keep calling you this - give us a first name - please !). This should be the section for all things African - however, I have noticed that medals pre-dominent. Feel free to leave it here - but, do add a note on the different pieces. Mervyn

All the stuff is from 32 Btn SADF (disbanded in '93), Camo Beret (with 1st type balkie bar). NCO's belt. Service Book. Pro Patria medal. Metal insignia for stepping out and a cloth one that I should really stitch onto something one day.

Cheers - Spaz
