This week’s blog is an excerpt from Hannes Wessel’s book “A handful of hard men” which is dedicated to Darrell Watt, an SAS operator in the Rhodesian bush war. I have received special permission from Hannes to scan, copy and paste the following pages, which make a fascinating read, so I ask for your forgiveness for scanned pages in this latest blog. I further dedicate this blog to the men of the Rhodesia Light Infantry, the Rhodesian SAS, the Rhodesian Air Force and any other soldier, male or female, that helped make operation Dingo a resounding success. (If you enjoyed this blog and Hannes’ book please follow the link above where you can purchase the entire book on Amazon)
