Bok van Blerk is at it again...
Although the word "Commando" was wrongly used to describe all Boer soldiers, a commando was a unit formed from a particular district. None of the units was organized in regular companies, battalions or squadrons. The Boer commandos were individualists who were difficult to control, resented formal discipline or orders, and earned a British jibe that"every Boer was his own general".
This is surely one of the best videos I've ever seen, I suppose it's because it is relevant to our history and my personal Defence Force training.
Some of the men in that video is from the same regiment where I was trained.
Everytime I watch it, emotions in me go haywire.
