This page is dedicated to a dear friend and mentor, the real XXX

Born poor, he battled on the streets of mining towns, from orphanage to reformatory to warden on "death row"

After not being accepted by the SADF, he went north to join the fight for Rhodesia, and served with distinction in the Grey Scouts, RLI Fire Force and then the SAS C Squadron.  Fighting ferociously until the politicians ended his war. He returned to his homeland and joined the Recces. Unorthodox in his methods, scorned of dogma, a rebel in their ranks but was seldom far from the thick of the action. Attacking the enemy from the air, land and sea, he led from the front against the Russians, Cubans, Angolans and SWAPO. Like his mentor, Rhodesian Captain Darrell Watt (God of War) he was denied the recognition he deserved.
