archie777 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 The 600 strong Boshof Commando attacked a British patrol under Major Scott as they escorted an armoured train towards Dronfield Station on the Mafikeng line, 13 km north of Kimberley. The patrol was almost cut off but managed to push back the Boer forces. British losses: 3 killed, 21 wounded. Boer losses: 2 killed and 7 wounded. I was born in Kimberley and lived there for many years. I was previledged to visit most of the battle fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
