| During the Rhodesian cease-fire, a ZANLA commander, Herbert Shungu, and 8 CTs stopped two South African Police vehicles which were carrying 6 members of the SAP and a BSAP constable. They were all relieved of the firearms, bundled into one of the trucks and driven down to the bridge over the Mazoe River in Rushinga District (Op Hurricane). They were taken onto the bridge and told to remove their shirts and hats, but sensing real danger, the policemen tried to escape, some by jumping into the river. One of the CTs opened up with his RPD. Jan Dippenaar, William du Plessis, Lourens Erasmus and Louis Franken of the SAP were all killed. Cst Grobbelaar, who was shot and wounded in the river, and Cst Eloff both survived. The body of Cst Mutasa Mandaza of the BSAP was never found and it is presumed he had drowned. |

| Killed in action. In the North Italian village of Carpane on 27 September 1944 the Germans executed 16 Allied soldiers captured fighting with Italian partisans in that area. Escaped with other South Africans from a nearby POW camp and joined up with local partisans to carry on fighting the Germans. They became such a thorn in the flesh of the Germans that a special operation was mounted in the Monte Grappa region to capture them. They were eventually captured and murdered by the Germans. Every year on this day since the end of the war the villagers of Carpane have held a memorial service at this spot by the side of the road where they were killed. For many years the identity of the 16 was not known and the monument was simply inscribed to "16 unknown". It was only about 4 or 5 years ago that their identity was uncovered by Sonia Residori, an Italian academic researcher. |

| Killed in action, during a 5 Recce Regt pseudo mission as part of Operation Slyk.As per General Francisco Pereira Furtado, ex Chief of Staff, Angolan Armed Forces: "From consultations with former members of the 19 FAPLA Infantry Brigade in Mulondo, on the evening of 20/21 October 1983 with a reconnaissance group about 5 kilometres south of the defence position of Brigade, They confirm that when the presence of the reconnaissance group was discovered on the ground, the 19 Brigade artillery fired in the same area, followed by the advance of 3 T-55 tanks that probably caused the death or dispersal of the SADF military and the abandonment of their bodies on the ground. It is noteworthy that Mulondo is located in the Bicuar reserve with ferocious animals among lions, leopards, hyenas and other felines." From this it appears that the four soldiers may have died an honourable soldier's death in facing a superior force of the enemy, which included artillery and tanks. All four seems to have been killed in action |

There was hardly time to reach the shelter of slit-trenches before the storm broke. The attack was short but severe. Thirty seconds of savage bombing and strafing from low level left the area a shambles of smoking debris. Four Rhodesians were killed - Corporal J. Smith, L/A/C.s A. G. Ednie and A. R. Meldrum, and AC.1 E. G. Lenthall |

| Killed in action. In the North Italian village of Carpane on 27 September 1944 the Germans executed 16 Allied soldiers captured fighting with Italian partisans in that area. Escaped with other South Africans from a nearby POW camp and joined up with local partisans to carry on fighting the Germans. They became such a thorn in the flesh of the Germans that a special operation was mounted in the Monte Grappa region to capture them. They were eventually captured and murdered by the Germans. Every year on this day since the end of the war the villagers of Carpane have held a memorial service at this spot by the side of the road where they were killed. For many years the identity of the 16 was not known and the monument was simply inscribed to "16 unknown". It was only about 4 or 5 years ago that their identity was uncovered by Sonia Residori, an Italian academic researcher |

| Killed in action, in Southern Angola, South West of Techipa when their Romeo Mike Teams were ambushed by a superior force of SWAPO/PLAN and FAPLA troops. The bodies of the three could not be recovered as the Teams were forced to withdraw when Cuban reinforcements arrived on the scene. The Romeo Mike Teams moved southwards, followed by the Cuban Force and were only able to evacuate the wounded team members at 01h00 the following morning. On 1 May 1988, another operation was launched into the initial contact area in an effort to recover the bodies of the three casualties and as expected, contact was again made with the enemy force. In the fierce fire fight that followed, 22 enemy troops including the Cuban commander were killed and a large quantity of weapons and equipment were captured before the enemy force withdrew. The three bodies were successfully recovered |

| Died of wounds, received in front the Butte de Warlencourt. In the night of the 16-17th October, the 1st S.A.I. relieved the 3rd S.A.I. in the front trenches. Large working parties were employed in widening and deepening the communication trenches to The Pimple and the Front line. On the 18th October, at 3.40 am, three companies of the 1st S.A.I. attacked Snag and Tail Trenches. The B Coy failed to realize that they had reached Snag Trench and continued beyond it. They had lost touch with their flanks and only some men succeeded to come back. Only a block was established at 50 metres of The Pimple. The D Company launched an attack at 5.45 pm and Snag Trench was occupied but the machine-gun fire from the Butte de Warlencourt took a heavy toll, leaving a small group in the trench. At 4 a.m. of the 19th October, Germans launched an assault with flame-throwers, driving the South Africans to their original front line. |

In the night of the 12-13th October, the 3rd S.A.I. relieved the 2nd and 4th S.A.I. which had suffered heavily during the attack on Snag and Tail Trenches. A new trench (Pearse's Trench) was dug and a patrol was sent on reconnaissance on The Pimple in the hands of the Germans. On the 14th October, the B Coy took The Pimple and a considerable part of the German communication trench. The B Coy was relieved by the A Coy in the night of the 15-16th October. The casualties of the 3rd S.A.I. amounted to 38 men. |

| Died of wounds, gunshot wounds sustained in a shooting incident at the Essexvale Battle Camp, Op Tangent. Upon returning from R&R on that Monday, twenty members of this Company had drawn rifles and live ammunition for retraining purposes. They assembled at the end of a football field, where they stripped their weapons for cleaning prior to moving to the rifle range for firing practice. Once the group had stripped their FNs, a Pte Robert Nyamini Mapfumo suddenly cocked his rifle and opened fire on automatic at his fellow soldiers. As Mapfumo's 20 round magazine emptied, and before he could replace it with a fully charged one, Privates Mawonda and Zevezene overpowered and disarmed Mapfumo. Tragically though, four lay dead and four were seriously wounded. Cpl Stephen Randall of Bulawayo, L/Cpl Michael Wall of Que Que, Sgt Kevin Bicknell of Hartley and Pte John Tshuma of Bembesi had lost their lives. Sgt Vic Anderson, Cpl Malcolm Partridge, L/Cpl Rob Garitzio and Pte David Chiremba had been wounded. In spite of claiming insanity, Mapfumo was found guilty of murder in the High Court in Bulawayo and sentenced to death |

| Killed in action. At dawn on 25 April, in a large stone building known as Rendina Farm, situated high above the plateau of Castelluccio, about fifty partisans were sleeping peacefully, believing that the surrounding territory, which was covered in snow, would have made it very difficult for German vehicles to make their approach. Moreover, they knew that the German official in charge of the unit concerned and the Prefect of the Province of Perugia had negotiated a several days' truce with the partisans. A South African by the name of Nigel Frank Eatwell, who passed himself of as lieutenant but was only a private, and partisan Ignazio Mangio were the respective leaders of two partisans bands, one made up of escaped allied POWs and the other of Italians. At six in the morning someone, having heard noises outside, gave the alarm and woke the others, but it was too late because by then the farmhouse had been completely surrounded by a unit belonging to the Guardia Repubblicana Nazionale responsible for the area covering Cascia, Cerreto and Perugia and under the command of a man named Guido Sainas. Sainas was actually looking for the band of partisans made up of Slavs and commanded by 'Toso', who, according to information received, should have been in the farmhouse. Having arrived at the building and surrounded it on all sides with their men, armed with machine guns and other weapons, he gave the order to open fire. Close to the farmhouse, on the east, was a ravine which dropped down to the village of Arquata del Tronto. In order to save themselves the partisans had to try to get to the ravine and throw themselves down into it. The partisans ran out of the building, firing as they went, trying to break through the cordon, but two South Africans ex-prisoners Sanderson and Schutte, and an Italian, Paolo Schiavetti Arcangeli from Spoleto, were hit. Several of their companions stopped to try to help them but could only testify as to the death of one of the two South Africans. The other two, seriously wounded, were incapable of moving. Paolo shouted to his friends that they should save themselves as he was beyond assistance. After the war the public prosecutor of Spoleto sought to bring Guido Sainas and some of his men to justice accusing them of having tortured and then killed Arcangeli after having taken him prisoner. Three companions who had stopped to help him testified that when he was still alive he had been only seriously wounded in his left thigh. But when they returned following the departure of the Fascists both he and the South African who lay next to him were found dead with an identical bullet wound in their forehead A further partisan witness spoke of a wound below his left lung, signs that he had been shaken, the loss of an eye and a further gunshot wound to the nape of his neck. When the case came to court in 1950 Sainas had already been absolved for crimes committed in Umbria and Liguria for lack of proof and so the Judge ruled that he could not be tried twice for the same crime. |

| Killed in action, torpedoed and sunk in the North Sea while evacuating UK and Belgian soldiers, airmen and civilians from Ostend on the last day of the Battle of Belgium. As Abukir slowly headed west for England, Luftwaffe aircraft bombed her for an hour and a half but failed to hit her. Then at 0115 hrs on 28 May a 44-knot (81 km/h) Kriegsmarine E-boat, S-34 commanded by OLt.z.S Obermaier, attacked her off Nieuwpoort near the Westhinder or the Noordhinder light vessel. Abukir's Captain, Rowland Morris-Woolfenden, took a zigzag course by which the coaster avoided two torpedoes from S-34. The coaster sighted S-34 off her port bow 20 minutes later. Morris-Woolfenden changed course to ram the torpedo boat, but with a top speed of only 8 knots (15 km/h) Abukir was too slow. S-34 fired two more torpedoes. The first missed, but the second hit the coaster amidships, blowing her in two. Abukir burst into flames and sank within a minute. She was the first Allied ship to be sunk by an E-boat. |

While flying above cloud, he informed his flight that he was going below to have a closer look at a road. While flying down the side of a hill at 2000 feet, his aircraft was hit by flak, and immediately began streaming glycol coolant as he climbed again to 3000 feet. He flicked into a slight spin, recovered briefly and attempted to crash-land in a shallow riverbed, but his aircraft disintegrated on impact. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #340. 2Lt Joyce was flying as No.2 to Lt Pretorius, on a rail interdiction mission. About 20 miles north of the bomb line the No.3, Lt Beamish, reported that he had a coolant leak and he and the No.4 Mustang were ordered to return to their base at K-46. Not long after this, Joyce reported that his engine was smoking, and Lt Pretorius decided to also return to K-46. While en route, 2Lt Joyce reported that his engine was now alright, and Lt Pretorius decided that the two of them would bomb Inchon instead, as this was directly on their route home. He ordered 2Lt Joyce to arm his bombs, which instructions were acknowledged, and they went in for the attack. After Lt Pretorius had climbed away he observed a brilliant flash on a hillside south of Inchon, and despite repeated attempts he was unable to raise 2Lt Joyce on his radio. He concluded that 2Lt Joyce had flown into the hillside while making his attack. Lt Pretorius returned later that day with another flight of aircraft, but although they were able to find the crash site, there was no sign of 2Lt Joyce. |

He was driving the vehicle down the Bobbejaan Road from Oshiri Base Camp outside Okahandja down the mountain to the tar road T-Junction when the vehicles brakes failed. The vehicle was picking up speed so he decided to carry straight on over the tar road into the veld instead of turning onto the tar road. Unfortunately there was a ditch on the other side of the tar road and the vehicles nose dug into the ditch and the vehicle flipped over. His actions, at the cost of his own life, were instrumental in saving the lives of those who were riding on the back of the vehicle as they were thrown clear when the vehicle flipped over. |

| Died in Freak Accident, drowned near the Epupa Falls on the Cunene River. Rifleman Boshoff and Wasas were on the Angolan side, trying to get back to the Namibian side. The log they had used to get to Angola from Namibia had disappeared down through the rapids. Wasas entered the river and got pulled through the rapids and most likely hit his head on a rock, losing consciousness. Boshoff and the section leader ran alongside the embankment of the river, past the rapids until they found a more calm spot and proceeded to swim across. When the section leader reached the Namibian side he could see Boshoff battling to keep his head above the water. He threw his arms in the air and got pulled under and disappeared. The section leader maintains he was pulled under by a whirlpool. Both bodies were found about 25 kms down the river. Boshoff 6 days later and Wasas 7 days later by a group of men in a boat who were sent to search for them. |

| Colonel Johannes Wilhelm Colenbrander, an esteemed veteran of the Zulu, Matabele and Anglo-Boer Wars, drowned on the set of African Film Productions' epic film, 'The Symbol of Sacrifice'. The incident also claimed the lives of Joseph Ralph Levy and William Brown, who had just returned from fighting in the World War. Colenbrander had been hired as advisor on this film about the Zulu War of 1879 and also starred as Lord Chelmsford, the commander of the British army in Zululand. The accident happened during the filming of a scene in which Chelmsford and his troops cross the Buffalo River to relieve the garrison at Rorke's Drift. The scene was shot at the Klip River near Henley-on-Klip, about 48km from Johannesburg. Colenbrander and his cavalry entered the water of the Klip River and was soon in 3 m deep water. When one of the horses took fright and tried to turn back to the river bank, the uneasiness spread and several riders were thrown from their horses. Boats were immediately sent to the rescue and most of the riders were saved. But just as a boat was about to pull Colenbrander to safety, he disappeared under the water. His body, along with those of Levy and Brown, was discovered a couple of days later. It is believed that Colenbrander had a heart attack from the strenuous swimming. |

| At 23.59 hours on 6 Dec, 1942, the Henry Stanley (Master Richard Jones), dispersed from convoy ON-149, was hit in the foreship by one torpedo from U-103 about 580 miles northwest of the Azores. The survivors abandoned ship and were questioned by the Germans, who took the master as prisoner on board. He was landed at Lorient on 29 December and taken to the POW camp Milag Nord. At 01.40 hours, the ship was hit aft of the bridge by a coup de grâce and disintegrated in a big explosion. The lifeboats were never seen again: 44 crew members, eight gunners and 11 passengers were lost. |

| Two troopers of 1 SSB (seconded to the 10th Panser Troopers) walked into a "kraal", unaware of two enemy soldiers that were hiding in one of the huts. The two troopers, Cloete and van Heerden, received fatal shots from the enemy within the hut after identifying themselves to the local population of the kraal. Van Heerden was apparently shot through the forehead with a Makarov pistol and died instantly. Cover fire was laid down by the 10th Panser Troopers which killed the enemy soldiers in the subsequent battle that took place. |

| Two days after Christmas in 1919, Lt. Charles Campbell Wood of the Royal Air Force earned a small place in history, but he earned it the hard way. Near midnight on a cold London winter evening Campbell Wood heard a call for help from the Thames. Rushing onto the western, upriver side of the Hammersmith Bridge, he saw a woman in peril, caught in the river's flow and in dire danger of expiring. Diving into the river to rescue her, Campbell Wood saved the woman's life. But in so doing, he also severely injured his head, and this eventually brought about his death in hospital from tetanus. Today the only reminder of his story is a small brass plaque on a handrail, which marks the spot on the bridge where Campbell Wood dived into the Thames to risk his life to save the life of a complete stranger. |

| Torpedoed, U-96 was chasing an unknown steamer that already evaded three G7e torpedoes when the unescorted Almeda Star (Master Harry Cecil Howard, Commodore of the Blue Star Line) was spotted about 35 miles northeast of Rockall. The U-boat then fired a fourth G7e torpedo at the first steamer at 07.10 hours, but it was also evaded and the boat forced to dive by gunfire. At 07.45 hours, U-96 fired one G7e torpedo at the Almeda Star, which stopped after a hit amidships. As the ship did not sink after being hit in the stern and amidships by two coups de grâce at 08.05 and 09.07 hours, the U-boat surfaced to shell the ship. The Germans observed four lifeboats and still saw people on deck before opening fire from 09.32 to 09.48 hours, hitting with about 15 of 28 incendiary shells. Only small fires were started which soon went out, so another torpedo was fired at 09.55 hours. The torpedo hit the forepart and caused her to sink by the bow within three minutes in 58 40N/13 38W. |

| The South African armoured column had penetrated deep into Angola and had just formed a laager to take bearings on their position and objectives. Two Angolan Mig 23 fighter jets had spotted the column, making a low pass initially they turned and came in for the attack. The Migs each dropped 500lbs parachute retarded bombs, one bomb landing just behind the Ratel IFV, literally driving the back axle into the ground and igniting the Ratel's 90mm ammunition. The second 500lb bomb landing just next to the Ratel. The Ratel's driver Frikkie de Jager was taking a break and resting in the back of the Ratel when the bombs hit and he died a little later of his injuries caused when the ratel's ammunition detonated. |

The group of seven instructors was in an office busy preparing for a lecture on hand grenades and was looking at a Yugoslavian grenade. One of the Instructors accidentally activated the grenade without knowing it. Sgt. David Kruger took the hand grenade from the instructor to disperse off it, but due to circumstances, space and time Sgt. David Kruger decided go into a corner, use his own body as cover against the blast and was killed instantly, saving the lives of Const CF Kotze (Soweto), Sgt. Bosch (Port Elizabeth), L/Sgt. E Mcauly (Newcastle), L/Sgt. DJ Schutte (Newcastle) and several other police officers around the office at the time of the blast. - See more at: http://www.southafricanpoliceofficersmemorial.com/sgtdavidkruger.html#sthash.vYXQj9wk.dpuf |

| Reyneke was stationed at Etale, 18 km from the Angolan border. Assigned to an escort detail that was to protect a Water Works JCB that had the task of repairing the water pipeline between Charlie Tower at Engela hospital and Eenhana. On the way there the JCB got stuck in the mud on several occasions. Nel and his buddy (Reyneke), got off the armoured vehicle and stayed close to the JCB with the intention of assisting it through the mud whenever it got close to getting stuck. From this point on, the going was really good, until the JCB detonated a land mine with one of it's back wheels. Reyneke was killed instantly. |

| Presumed drowned. On May 21st 1940 1QVR set out at three hours' notice to Calais under orders to secure the town and await the arrival of the rest of 30 Brigade. 1QVR had been deployed in such a rush that no one seems to have considered that as a motorized battalion, a third of its men, classified as drivers, were armed only with revolvers, which were useless anyway as they had no ammunition. Many officers were not issued with weapons at all and no-one seemed to know what was going on. Their orders were to secure the harbour area, and to block the six roads leading to Calais. 1QVR secured the cable terminal at Sangatte, patrolled the beaches to prevent German aircraft from landing and dealt with the many refugees that were arriving. Nicholson was aware that an attack was imminent and on 23rd May recorded ""Calais is surrounded. Heavy bombing is expected tonight, and a powerful attack will probably be put in in the morning."" Mortar shells began to fall at dawn the following morning followed by the arrival of German tanks and infantry. 1QVR were ordered to withdraw to the line of Calais' ramparts and attacks continued all morning. It was clear by the late afternoon of May 24th that this defensive line could not be held much longer, and Nicholson ordered a withdrawal to an inner perimeter made up of various canals and waterways surrounding the old city of Calais Nord. On the 25th, the Germans offered Nicholson two chances to surrender, which he refused: ""Tell the Germans that if they want Calais they will have to fight for it."" Churchill sent the message: ""Every hour you continue to exist is of the greatest help to the BEF. Have greatest possible admiration for your splendid stand. Evacuation will not (repeat not) take place, and craft required for above purpose are to return to Dover."" On the afternoon of May 25th the fighting intensified still further and The Citadel, where Nicholson's headquarters were based, fell at 1630. What was left of 'B' Company of 1QVR was overwhelmed at around 1700. Two detached platoons of 'C' Company were among the last to surrender, having fought to the last around Place d'Angleterre and Place de l'Europe. By 1730, Calais had fallen. On June 4th 1940 Churchill made the following statement in Parliament: ""The Rifle Brigade, the 60th Rifles and the Queen Victoria's Rifles, with a battalion of British tanks and one thousand Frenchmen - in all about four thousand strong - defended Calais to the last. The British Brigadier was given an hour to surrender. He spurned the offer, and four days of intense street fighting passed before silence reigned over Calais, which marked the end of a memorable resistance. Only thirty unwounded survivors were brought off by the Royal Navy, and we do not know the fate of their comrades. Their sacrifice was not however, in vain. At least two armoured divisions, which otherwise would have been turned against the British Expeditionary Force, had to be sent to overcome them. They have added another page to the glories of the Light Division and the time gained enabled the Gravelines Walnlieu to be flooded and to be held by French troops; and thus it was that the port of Dunkirk was kept open."" The gallantry with which 30 Brigade held the town for four days won time for their hard-pressed comrades of the BEF to be evacuated from Dunkirk and the neighbouring beaches. A few minutes before the surrender, Raikes was seen unhurt and it is thought he had intended to make good his escape. It is known that several British escapers were killed attempting to swim across the various basins and waterways of Calais. Some men did manage to escape that night on board a Royal Naval vessel, the yacht Gulzar, and two members of 1QVR managed to cross the Channel in a dinghy and an old motor-boat, but no more was ever seen or heard of Raikes. |

Boorsma's life (diving onto him) and by doing so, he indicated to his Lieutenant where SWAPO was firing from and therefore saving more lives. A small group of FAPLA/SWAPO snipers had pinned a Ratel platoon for at least 10-15 minutes and killed two more Unita soldiers (traveling with them) and wounded another three. Was recommended for the Honoris Crux for his bravery, but army headquarters refused the recommendation. |

| On 4th December 1980 his company was based at Ondongwa. With only a few days left to serve, two sections of Donald's platoon were ordered to escort one or two buses filled with PF`s and Contractor's kids on school holiday from the states. They picked the buses up from the airbase at Ondag`s escorting them to Oshikati. On the return trip the 2 Buffels were ambushed by a large group of terrorists. A RPG hit the roll bar above Donald's head, fatally wounding him. The 2nd buffel took a RPG through the side killing two other soldiers. Everybody on Donald's buffel was wounded. The drivers (who were never decorated for their bravery) got both of those buffels out the kill zone with tyres blown out and wounded. Donald's buffel was driven to the airbase and the 2nd buffel to the base in the town. He was from Johannesburg area and believed to be an only child. |

| Newark police received a tip-off around 18:30 that the Manchester farm was being used as a storage site for dagga. Four policemen went to the farm to investigate and on arrival they were confronted outside the homestead by six men armed with knives and sticks. One of the men, Vincent "Gumede" Ndimande, pulled out a firearm and shot Constable Thobile Gaza in the chest once. He also fired several shots at Constable Mark Sindicich, 35, hitting him in the arms and shoulder. Ndimande then held his firearm at Sindicich's forehead and ordered the wounded officer's colleagues to leave the farm. One of the policemen, Inspector Hans Mahardood, managed to pull out his service pistol and shot Ndimande in the chest. Gaza was rushed to Stanger hospital where she died almost immediately after arrival. |

| Murdered, in Shoah. Deported with Transport 77 from Drancy Camp, France to Auschwitz Birkenau Extermination Camp, Poland on 31 July 1944. At the end of July 1944, the situation was particularly unstable in Paris. The allies who had landed on June 6th were advancing towards the capital. On July 20th, an attack against Hitler and an attempted coup d'Etat had failed; Gestapo officals arrested by the soldiers of the Wehrmacht were released. Alois Brunner, camp commandant of Drancy, took advantage of the confusion and continued following his murderous madness to the end. He sent his commandos in UGIF homes in the region of Paris where they rounded up 300 children, including 18 infants. On 31 July 1944, the convoy 77, the last large convoy of deportees left from Drancy to Auschwitz, carrying to the extermination camp more than 1,000 men and women, and 300 children. Of the 1321 prisoners, 726 were immediately sent to the gas chambers upon arrival in Auschwitz. The camp was to be liberated by the Red Army on January 27th, 1945. Only 214 deportees had survived forced labor, abuse, pseudo-medical experiments and deprivation. |

| Missing in action, on a reconnaissance of Sicily, with Combined Operations Pilotage Parties. In March 1943, just a few weeks after the Hayling COPP depot was established, a team of 15 men was sent out on an ill-fated mission, to examine the southern beaches of Sicily. Canoes were transported to within half a mile or so of their target and then launched from submarines. Before launching they were loaded with the equipment, and then floated free from the partially trimmed submarine. Depending on the distance and the operating conditions the canoes were also often launched from small landing craft. The teams operated in pairs, the navy personnel normally doing the sea reconnaissance, and the army the on-shore military surveys. The army officer sat in the front cockpit with his navy paddler in the rear. They paddled to within a few hundred yards of the shore and anchored. The heavily equipped army man would then swim to the beach. Tragically, of the 15 men who set out, five were captured, five were lost, and only five returned to base. But lessons were learned, and ultimately thousands of Allied troops would owe their lives worldwide, to the dedication of the men of COPP. |

| Missing believed killed, during a contact between Luenge and Coutada du Mucusso about a week before S Sgts Roxo and Soeiro were killed, much further south along the Okavango river. He was driving a Unimog loaded with a tonne or more of explosives when he ran into an ambush while the company he served in was on its way back to Buffalo. He was probably hit by a RPG 7 which meant that the whole truck exploded and his remains could not be recovered. It was because of that incident that Col Breytenbach sent Ribeiro senior home to visit his mother after the second ambush in which Daniel Roxo et al were killed and which led to Robbie Ribeiro also getting killed in that nasty overtaking incident on the Golden highway. |

Four days later she signalled that the party had been successfully landed at Bireans. She was due to return to pick up the commandos on 9th January but failed to make the rendezvous. Nothing further was heard of the submarine. No axis power claimed her destruction and it is believed that she struck a mine |

| Killed in flying battle, in Middle East. Wellington Z 8778 of RAF Sea Rescue Flight took off at 1000 hours on 3 August 1942 from Landing ground 'X' in answer to a request from Flying Control AHQ, Egypt, to search for a missing Wellington aircraft of 104 Sqn which had signalled at about 0500 hours that it was force landing in position 30.51N, 29.52E. The Captain was instructed to carry out a search of the reported position to a depth of 30 miles. It was pointed out that the area traversed the main Cairo-Alexandria road and also contained a large number of aerodromes. At 1245 hours a snap D/F bearing by Gianaclis was 135 deg. At 1300 hours a WT signal from Z 8778 read "search had up to that time been unsuccessful, but continuing." At 1642 hours a further attempt was made to contact Z 8778 but was not successful. The aircraft had a safe endurance of 8 hours - perhaps over 10 hours. Extensive searches were made for Z 8778 over the next two days but were unsuccessful. |

| Killed in flying battle, in Indian Area. Dakota KN 202 of 194 Sqn RAF was scheduled to take off from base at 1455 hours on 3 May 1945 after being briefed to land supplies at Payagi, Burma. The aircraft and crew were last seen by the Duty Ops Officer at the time the aircraft took off. Since then nothing further heard from the aircraft. At 1146 hours the aircraft was reported overdue to the HQ 341 Wing, and an air-seajungle search organised. All aircraft returned to base with nil results. A 1953 report by the Far East Graves service stated "local villagers stated that a two engine British aircraft was forced to land a few miles from Payagi in the forest area in May 1945 which was still occupied by the enemy. None of the crew were brought in or buried or taken prisoner. The villagers had no knowledge of graves near the wrecked aircraft or elsewhere. The fate of the crew could not be ascertained and the graves were unlocated after a search." |

| Killed in aircraft accident, petrol leak, cockpit burst into flames Mtubatuba, in Lockheed B-34 Ventura II #6107. Ditched in the Indian Ocean 8km east of Umkomaas due to double engine failure. Two P-40 Kittyhawks from 10 Sqn, an Anson and a Battle proceeded to the area to search for possible survivors. All four crew members wearing Mae West were seen to enter the water and at approximately 20:35. Major Brierley and Sgt McIver were rescued by a Durban based crash boat R1. Major Brierley stated that the other two crew members were close by, but in the fading light they could not be found. The search continued the next day, after Lt Jacks thought he observed a man in the water he fired a burst across the bows of the rescue vessel, though in doing so lost sight of the man. These two members of the crew that went missing were 22 Squadrons first losses. |

| Killed in action. Swapo had set up a new infiltration route into the Kaokoveld towards the end of 1981. When the South African army learned of this it was decided to assault the transit camp based at Cambeno 40 kms north of the Cunene River. Puma helicopters airlifted the assault force but as the choppers lifted off they found that the enemy was only 50 metres away from the LZ. Fortunately for Nel the helicopter gunships managed to neutralize some of the enemy and gave him a chance to consolidate his position. An intense fire fight developed and Lieutenant Nel's position was being assaulted on both flanks simultaneously. He then called for air support but as this was not available he and two men charged the enemy to try and eliminate the threat to his troops. During this selfless act his was killed. A 45 strong force of 32 Battalion with gunship support killed 201 SWAPO as well as captured vast amounts of equipment in the rugged terrain of Kaokaland desert |

| Killed in action. In the North Italian village of Carpane on 27 September 1944 the Germans executed 16 Allied soldiers captured fighting with Italian partisans in that area. He was captured in the Middle East on 20 June 1942. Escaped with other South Africans from a nearby POW camp and joined up with local partisans to carry on fighting the Germans. They became such a thorn in the flesh of the Germans that a special operation was mounted in the Monte Grappa region to capture them. They were eventually captured and murdered by the Germans. Every year on this day since the end of the war the villagers of Carpane have held a memorial service at this spot by the side of the road where they were killed. For many years the identity of the 16 was not known and the monument was simply inscribed to "16 unknown". It was only about 4 or 5 years ago that their identity was uncovered by Sonia Residori, an Italian academic researcher |

| Killed in action, whilst on patrol in Henombe area of Southern Angola. At Henombe, approximately 200 cattle were found and driven towards the SWA border, the idea being to take these cattle to the cattle farm at Omauni. A small PLAN force led by Denga Ndaitwah (recently retired Chief of the Namibian Defence Force) spotted the 32 Battalion patrol and hastily laid an ambush south of Henombe. In the short firefight, Lieutenant Keulder was mortally wounded and the PLAN force immediately withdrew. His body was carried out of the contact area before being airlifted out back to SWA. The 32 Battalion Patrol abandoned the cattle and returned to South West Africa on foot. |

Sullivan) was hit by one G7a torpedo from U-160 about 40 miles east of Cape Hatteras, while she steamed in twenty-foot seas on a nonevasive course at 14 knots. The torpedo struck after a running time of just 29 seconds at the #3 hold just below the bridge on the port side at the waterline. The armed guards fired twelve shots with the 4in gun on the poop (the ship was also armed with four .50cal and four .30cal guns) at the periscope. The U-boat circled the stern at a distance of about 250 yards and fired off the starboard quarter a coup de grâce that struck the starboard side at #4 hold, causing the ship to sink stern first after 20 minutes. The most of the 13 officers, 70 crewmen and 41 passengers abandoned ship in four lifeboats, the nine armed guards jumped off the ship as water reached the after deck. |

As Abukir slowly headed west for England, Luftwaffe aircraft bombed her for an hour and a half but failed to hit her. Then at 0115 hrs on 28 May a 44-knot (81 km/h) Kriegsmarine E-boat, S-34 commanded by OLt.z.S Obermaier, attacked her off Nieuwpoort near the Westhinder or the Noordhinder light vessel. Abukir's Captain, Rowland Morris-Woolfenden, took a zigzag course by which the coaster avoided two torpedoes from S-34. The coaster sighted S-34 off her port bow 20 minutes later. Morris-Woolfenden changed course to ram the torpedo boat, but with a top speed of only 8 knots (15 km/h) Abukir was too slow. S-34 fired two more torpedoes. The first missed, but the second hit the coaster amidships, blowing her in two. Abukir burst into flames and sank within a minute. She was the first Allied ship to be sunk by an E-boat |

In two holds, 422 sick British (including 221 RAF servicemen) and 127 sick Dutch prisoners, including up to twenty stretcher cases, were accommodated. The Japanese patients filled the other two holds. Escorted by a minesweeper W-12, the Suez Maru set sail from Port Amboina but while entering the Java Sea and about 327 kilometers east of Surabaya, Java, Netherlands East Indies, the vessel was torpedoed by the American submarine USS Bonefish commanded by Cdr. Tom Hogan. The ship started to list as water poured into the holds drowning hundreds, many managed to escape the holds and swam away from the sinking ship. The Japanese mine sweeper W-12 picked up the Japanese survivors, leaving between 200 and 250 men in the sea. At 14.50, the minesweeper, W-12, under orders from Captain Kawano, opened fire, using a machine gun and rifles. Rafts and lifeboats were then rammed and sunk by the W-12. The firing did not cease till all the prisoners were killed, the minesweeper then picked up speed and sped off towards Batavia (Jakarta) at 16.30 hours |

| Killed in action, shot down whilst on an operational sortie in Angola, in Dassault Mirage F1AZ #245. Shot down by a Soviet SA-13 Gopher Surface-to-Air Missile at Cuatir near Menongue. The aircraft was seen to crash in flames and disintegrate on impact with the ground. A Special Forces team covering the area where the Mirage wreckage was located reported a large number of FAPLA and Cuban Air Force intelligence personnel picking through the wreckage and called in an artillery barrage onto the wreckage. The MRL Rocket-launcher Troop under Pierre Franken hit the spot with a half-ripple of 127mm High Explosive Fragmentation Rockets and two FAPLA trucks were required to collect the more than 143 Cuban and FAPLA bodies that were killed by this rocket barrage. |

| Killed in action, shot down while on armed recce over Angola, in Atlas MB326KM Impala Mk II #1029. Part of a pair of Impala aircraft on an armed reconnaissance mission in Southern Angola when they located and attacked an enemy target. While he was pulling out from the attack, the aircraft was struck by enemy ground fire and burst into flames. Peter was seen to eject but no further news was received and he was not seen on the ground. A Special Forces Team was immediately inserted into the area and they successfully recovered his body, still attached to his parachute. It appeared that Peter had not lowered his seat prior to ejecting and his head had struck the canopy on ejection. His neck was broken on impact with the canopy, killing him instantly. |

| Killed in action, part of a group, from the Recce wing of 32Bn. They were tasked to do a Recce patrol close to Chana 'Enhombe' (about 15 to 20 kms north of the cutline) to determine the extent of SWAPO activity in the area and if possible locate SWAPO Bases in order that 32Bn Companies could launch base attacks. They commenced their Recce on the late afternoon of 22 April 1979. Just after sunrise the following day, 23 April, the group was engaged by a much superior SWAPO force. In the ensuing firefight Tchizonda was wounded by small arms fire but was still able to be mobile. Unfortunately however, on one of the groups withdrawal maneuvers he was hit in the chest, at point blank range, by an RPG7. Due to the intense enemy fire his fellow Recce Members were not able to recover his body |

| Killed in action, likely sunk while attacking a convoy about 30 nautical miles south-west of Gavdos Island in position 34 25'N, 22 36'E. At 1255 hours one of the escorting Ju-88 aircraft was seen to machine-gun the surface of the sea about 5000 yards ahead of the convoy and the Italian torpedo boat Pegaso moved in to investigate. Four minutes after the aircraft attack, Pegaso picked up a contact and carried out seven depth charge attacks. At 1345 hours an enormous air bubble was seen, followed by a large oil slick. Pegaso was escorting the transport Istria (5441 GRT, built 1921) on passage from Benghazi to Piraeus. HMS Thorn was declared overdue on 11 August 1942 when she did not arrive at Beirut. |

From this point on, the going was really good, until the JCB detonated a land mine with one of its back wheels. Nel was killed instantly. |

| Killed in action, in Operation Hurricane, gun shot wound. From Terence Murphy RhAF chopper pilot "I was flying a G-car in a Fire Force. 15 insurgents had been reported and we went to find them. They found me! We were circling a specific area while the Fire Force commanders sorted out a plan, and, as I flew over some rocks the aircraft came under intense small arms fire and was hit a number of times. At least we now knew where they were! Unfortunately a soldier of 1 Bn RAR sitting next to me was badly wounded. We stripped him of his machine gun and ammunition, landed the remaining troops in the contact area, and sped off to the medical facility at base some minutes flying away. Alas, Private Emmanuel Chaka was found to be dead on arrival. The aircraft had sustained several hits and the engineers wanted to patch up the aircraft there and then, but, displaying a brave front not reflecting how I felt inside - we refueled and immediately went back to the action. I was glad to find it was just about over when I rejoined!" |

| Killed in action, in Northern Ireland, a Green Jackets observation post deployed around the village of Jonesborough began to take heavy fire from the "March Wall", which drew parallel to the border with the Republic of Ireland to the east, along the Dromad woods. The soldiers returned fire, but the short distance to the border and the open ground prevented them from advancing. Corden-Lloyd, as commanding officer, along with Captain Philip Schofield and Sergeant Ives flew in a Gazelle helicopter from the base at Bessbrook Mill to assess the situation and provide information to the troops. While hovering over the scene of the engagement, the aircraft came under fire from the IRA. The pilot lost control of the aircraft during a turn at high speed to avoid the ground fire. The helicopter hit a wall and crashed on a field, some 2,000 meters from Jonesborough. Corden-Lloyd was killed instantly, while the other two passengers were wounded. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-86 F-30 Sabre #614. Major S. Wells led four Sabres on a naval affiliation exercise with HMS Ocean, off the west coast opposite K-55. After pulling out from his mock attack, 2Lt M.C. Botha reported that both his alternate and emergency system controls were locked, and the pressure on his alternate system gauge was reading zero. Major Wells advised him to watch his normal system and to head for the coast and bale out if necessary. 2Lt Botha ejected over land at 18,000 feet, but was then blown out to sea, his parachute being seen approximately two miles offshore. He was never found, despite an intensive search conducted over two days, and is believed to have drowned or been overcome by the mud in the shallow water close to shore. |

On arrival in the target area, Lt Scott experienced difficulties with his radio, and handed over the lead to his No.3, Lt Singleton.

Lt Austin, flying in the No.4 position behind Lt Scott saw the latter's aircraft burst into flames and shed a few large pieces. The Mustang failed to recover from its dive, crashing into the ground. |

Arriving over Chorwon at 10000 feet, they flew between Chorwon and Kumwa, to a position just north of the Hwachon reservoir. Here they spotted a light aircraft, which they approached. Capt Nortje identified it as a L-19 of the Republic of Korea Air Force. They then sighted another unidentified aircraft, which turned out to be a US Navy spotter aircraft. Lt Moir turned onto the tail of another aircraft, in an attempt to identify this. It was in fact a US Navy Skyraider, and unfortunately the other members of the Skyraider's flight, unable to identify him clearly as friendly, assumed his intentions to be hostile and Lt Moir was attacked and shot down by another of the Skyraiders. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #380. Eight aircraft, led by Captain Bolitho, were assigned to attack enemy artillery positions at CT154343. Major R.P.G. Kotzenberg was in the No.4 position. The formation proceeded their bombing run at 10,000 feet, pulling out at 4,000, after which Capt Bolitho headed for the rendezvous point and called his flight to check in. All but Major Kotzenberg did so. Capt Bolitho returned to the target area and observed a secondary fire in the vicinity, which he was unable to definitely establish as the remains of the missing aircraft, and after searching a further 45 minutes he returned to base. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #375. A four aircraft 'C' Flight formation, led by Lt Baransky, were en route to their assigned target at CT062459. After climbing through cloud to 1000 feet, Capt R.A. Harburn, flying in the No.2 position, reported that his aircraft was leaking something. On checking, Lt Baransky discovered that the starboard side of Capt Harburn's aircraft was covered in oil, and he ordered the latter to return to base at K-46. He then ordered the remaining two aircraft to join with 'B' Flight, as he would escort Capt Harburn back to base. The two pilots then requested permission to drop their bombs, and were instructed to do so either north or south of K-46. When five miles from K-46, Lt Baransky ordered Capt Harburn to drop his bombs in the nearby river, which Capt Harburn proceeded to do. He then called Lt Branasky to ask if the latter had seen his bombs drop, and received a negative response. Lt Baransky told Capt Harburn to fly past the airfield Control Tower for an inspection, and shortly after this the Control Tower reported that Capt Harburn's Mustang had crashed into the ground and burst into flames. It appears that he did attempt to bale out, but from marks found on his aircraft's cockpit canopy, he may have been struck in the head by the canopy as it was released, and this rendered him unconscious. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #374. 2Lt R.L. Staats had just recently returned for a second tour of operations, and was authorised to test Mustang 374, which had just undergone a maintenance check. He was seen circling K-10 airfield but when he failed to land after half an hour, attempts were made to contact him from the Control Tower, but he failed to respond. A message was almost immediately received that a Mustang had crashed into Chinhae Bay. A search failed to find any trace of him or his aircraft, and only three days later was the aircraft eventually found. South Korean divers recovered 2Lt Staats' body. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #372. Major Mouton led a three aircraft flight, comprising himself, Lt J.O. Holtzhausen in the No.2 position and Capt van der Merwe in the No.3 position. Their target was a railroad at YE5004, which they attacked from 7500 feet. Visibility over the target was poor, with low cloud and haze. Prior to his attack, Major Mouton noticed that both his No.2 and No.3 were in position, and after the attack he headed for the form up point and called his flight to check in. Only No.3 did so. On calling Lt Holtzhausen again, Major Mouton received a response, to the effect that Lt Holtzhausen was joining an American flight for the return home. However, he failed to arrive with any of the American flights involved in the attack, and was not heard of again. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #363. A flight of four Mustangs, led by Lt Pretorius, conducted a rail interdiction mission in the YD area. After attacking their primary target successfully, they proceeded to a village north-east of Sibyon-ni, which they attacked with rockets. While pulling out of his dive, 2Lt C.J. Pappas' aircraft was seen to explode in a silvery flash, although there was only light 20 mm flak in the vicinity. Further investigation revealed no sign of 2Lt Pappas or his aircraft. It was his first mission. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #362. Capt Leathers, with 2Lt J.N. Lellyet as his No.2, was leading four aircraft on a training flight, a simulated interdiction strike on a rail bridge over a river. They arrived over the designated area at 10500 feet, and commenced their attacks in echelon port formation. Shortly after pulling out of his dive at 3000 feet, Capt Leathers looked back and saw an explosion short of the target and a half mile to starboard. The No.3 then reported over the radio that "No.2 has gone in.". No.3 and No.4 aircraft proceeded to orbit the crash site while Capt Leathers flew back to K-10 to report the accident, as he was unable to radio them. Lt Lellyet's body was recovered. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #353. Lt L.W. Parsonson was briefed to lead "A" Flight on an interdiction mission against a railroad yard at YC4394. En route his No.4 reported that he had engine problems, so Lt Parsonson ordered him to return to base, escorted by the No.3 aircraft. He then requested permission for his two remaining aircraft to join another flight, led by Major Lyon, who were en route to the same target. This was granted. All six aircraft attacked their primary target with bombs, and proceeded to their secondary target north east of Kumsong. This they attacked with rockets and machine guns. Lt Parsonson, flying in the No.5 position, reported that he had been hit, and was instructed to fly south. However, before he could reach friendly lines he reported that his aircraft was on fire and shortly after that he crashed. The flight searched the area for his parachute or any sign of life without success. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #349. On a 64 aircraft raid against Pyongyang, 2Lt C.L. de Jongh was flying in the No.2 position behind his flight leader, 2Lt Earp, with Lt van den Bos and 2Lt Marchand in the No.3 and No.4 positions respectively. During their attack, 2Lt Earp saw 2Lt de Jong 200 yards behind him and to his left. On pulling out of his napalm run, 2Lt de Jongh reported that he had been hit and that he was heading out to sea, but did not think he would make it. The other members of the flight saw his aircraft briefly as it left the target area, streaming glycol. He was never seen again. In 2000, a South African visitor to Beijing visited a military museum there, and saw the remains of 2Lt de Jong's Mustang (349). |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #346. Capt A. Janse van Rensburg was the leader of a flight armed with VT fused bombs for flak suppression. After encountering little flak at their primary target, he led the flight to a village south-east of Suan, that was being used as a supply dump. They bombed, rocketed and strafed the village, and during their last strafing run Lt Parsonson, flying in the No.3 position, saw his leader's aircraft take hit's from .50 " machine gun fire. It immediately began streaming glycol and dived towards the ground, out of control. Lt Parsonson, who was between the leader and the ground, had to take evasive action to prevent a collision, and 2Lt Hansen, flying in the No.4 position, saw Capt Janse van Rensburg slumped forward over his controls. His aircraft failed to recover and dived straight into the ground. |

On take off, Lt Krohn aborted due to a fault with his radiator, and was delayed 10 minutes, the rest of his flight continuing without him. After his radiator had been repaired, he took off alone, in an attempt to catch up with his flight. He was seen by two USAF flights, and Lt Krohn reported that he was making his attack with a USAF flight. They reported seeing his bombs explode, and the last American pilot off the target reported seeing a lone 'Cheetah' Mustang heading south. He failed to return, and was not heard of again. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #342. 2Lt M.O. Grunder was leading a flight of four Mustangs to cut rail and other supply routes. After completing the primary sortie, they headed south, and over Youndong 2Lt Grunder spotted something on the ground, in a wooded area which he went to investigate. It was an anti-aircraft battery, and he proceeded to strafe this, followed by the rest of his flight. His No.2, Major Wiggett, lost sight of 2Lt Grunder in the sun as he pulled up from his strafing run. Shortly after this, Major Wiggett saw a Mustang canopy and some papers floating down at 1500 feet, but no sign of 2Lt Grunder's aircraft. A search revealed the aircraft wreckage on the ground, but no sign of 2Lt Grunder, and no parachute was found. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #341. Lt P.I. Norman-Smith was leader of four "A" Flight Mustangs returning to base, following a successful mission. After becoming disorientated due to cloud encountered, Lt Norman-Smith contacted Control and requested a course to steer to K-46. He was told to stand by, as Control was busy with another emergency. He then tried to contact K-14 and K-16 airfields, without success, but at an altitude of 1000 feet he noticed the Han River below them. The flight proceeded to follow the river, intending to land at K-16 Seoul. While approaching Seoul in clear weather, Lt Norman-Smith's aircraft was suddenly rammed by the No.3 aircraft in his flight, piloted by 2Lt K.R. Whitehead. Both aircraft promptly crashed into the Han River, their pilots being killed. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #338. T/Capt F.M. Bekker, together with Lt R.M. du Plooy, and 2Lts M.I.B. Halley and D.A.R Green, was tasked to conduct a weather reconnaissance of the West Coast of North Korea. They proceeded up the Han Gang River at about 1500 feet, turning east when they reached the river mouth. In deteriorating weather they successfully attacked a bridge across the Imjin-Gan River, completely destroying it. In the course of their attack, they glided down from 1800 feet to 50 feet, and while passing over a hill at low altitude, T/Capt Bekker's aircraft was hit by ground fire. It immediately burst into flames and began to break up, and although he was able to jettison his canopy, he failed to bale out before the aircraft crashed and was destroyed. 2Lt Halley went down to investigate the crash site, and was in turn shot down. He managed to climb to a safe altitude and bale out, and on landing he waved to his two remaining comrades. One of these, Lt du Plooy, remained low to cover 2Lt Halley and keep enemy troops away from him, while 2Lt Green climbed for altitude and called for a rescue helicopter to pick up the stranded pilot. This arrived too late however, and despite Lt du Plooy's best attempts to keep the enemy troops at bay, he had to report that he had seen them capture 2Lt Halley. Shortly after this, he reported that he too had been hit, and although the wreckage of his aircraft was found, he was never heard of again. For his gallantry in sacrificing himself while attempting to save a fellow pilot, Lt R.M. du Plooy was posthumously awarded the United States Silver Star, the highest decoration available to a member of a foreign ally operating under American control. 2Lt Halley spent the remainder of the war as a prisoner of the North Koreans, suffering such privations that following his repatriation, he died in a Durban hospital on 15 August 1954, aged only 24. Only 2Lt Green returned to base safely. This proved to be the worst casualties suffered in a single mission by 2 Squadron throughout the Korean War. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #337. Lt A.G. Frisby was leading a flight of four Mustangs on an armed reconnaissance just north of Hanpo-ri. The flight had reached a position roughly four miles north-west of Sibyon-ni, when Lt Frisby reported that he had been hit by anti-aircraft fire and was baling out at an altitude of 1000 feet. His aircraft's canopy was seen to fly off and a brown object, probably the pilot, was seen to fall from the crippled aircraft. No parachute was seen though, and it would appear that Lt Frisby's parachute failed to open. His pilotless aircraft, turning to the left, continued to lose height until it struck flat ground near a river and was destroyed. An intensive search by two members of the flight failed to find him, and a search conducted by four aircraft later that day also failed to find any sign of him. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #333. 2Lt T. Liebenberg, a new pilot in the squadron, was about to undertake his first mission from K-10. Take off time was approximately 07H00 and 2Lt Liebenberg, in the No.4 position, was the last to take off. As his aircraft gathered speed it started veering to the left, off the runway in the direction of the control tower. It struck a ditch, wiping the undercarriage off, and collided with a parked American aircraft, bursting into flames as it did so. He died in the resulting fire. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #330. Lt M.H. Rorke was one of three pilots preparing to take off from K-16 on their third mission of the day, their target being a well camouflaged supply dump near Singye. During his take of run, Lt Rorke's aircraft became airborne three quarters down the runway, but failed to climb higher than approximately 10 feet, and swung slowly towards a stranded B29 bomber at the end of the runway. As the Mustang's left wing began to drop, Lt Rorke jettisoned his napalm tanks, possibly in a last attempt to avoid disaster, but crashed into the B29 and the exploding napalm engulfed both aircraft. |

The following day a report was received, stating that a wrecked aircraft had been found north east of Sosan. A Korean eye witness said that the aircraft, trailing black smoke, had approached at an altitude of 100 feet before suddenly nose diving into the ground. The pilot had attempted to bale out but was too late, and had been killed. He was buried by the Koreans, who also placed a cross and two wreaths on his grave. 2Lt Verster's body was later recovered. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #321. Four aircraft piloted by Capt J.F.O. Davis, Maj Blaauw, and Lts Cooke and McDonald were on a close support mission, their target being enemy troops in a valley near Yangdogwoni-ni, between the Han and Pukham Rivers. A mosquito control aircraft dived into the valley and fired a phosphorous rocket at the target area he wished the Mustangs to attack, his rocket striking a building and causing a number of enemy troops to run out into the open. Capt Davis and Lt McDonald then went in to the attack, while Maj Blaauw and Lt Cooke flew top cover for them. On the final turn into the attack, Capt Davis' aircraft rolled onto its back at about 1200 feet and appeared to go into a spin. Both napalm bombs then came off, but the aircraft did not recover, continuing to spin until it crashed, together with the falling napalm, into a gully on the side of a hill. Maj Blaauw took over command of the flight and completed the attack. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #320. Six aircraft, led by Commandant Dick Clifton, were tasked with flak suppression during a series of 18 Fighter Bomber Wing attacks on the railway between Sunchon and Kuadong-ni, also known as 'Butterfly Bend'. While making their attack, the flight was bounced by a number of enemy MiG-15 aircraft, and 2Lt D.L. Taylor, in the No.4 position, was hit between the mainplane and fuselage as he pulled away from the target. He immediately headed south with his aircraft streaming black smoke and glycol, while the remainder of the flight attempted to cover his retreat. However, two MiG's made a series of quarter attacks, forcing the Mustangs to turn towards them, while another MiG tried to sneak up on the Mustangs from below. The latter was spotted by Lt Joubert, and his warning enabled the formation to break to port just as the MiG opened fire, causing him to miss as he passed the formation in a shallow climb. Lt Enslin, in the No.6 position, fired a long burst into the port wing root of the MiG, which proved enough to convince the remaining enemy aircraft to break off the combat and head for home. Later analysis of Lt Enslin's gun camera footage confirmed that he had hit the MiG, and he was credited with a damaged MiG-15. Unfortunately, in the skirmish the flight had lost sight of 2Lt Taylor's aircraft, and he was never seen again. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #319. Lts W.E. St E. Wilson, Frost, Gow and de la Harpe were conducting an armed reconnaissance of road routes from Wonsan through Hamhung, terminating at the Chosin reservoir. After arriving over Wonsan, Lt Wilson informed Lt Gow that he was about to begin his sweep and the flight lost altitude. North of Wonsan, Wilson did a search of the roads, and at Munchon he called to say that he intended to orbit to the left. He was seen to complete two circles, when he suddenly banked to the right and commenced climbing. Lt Gow noticed that Lt Wilson's aircraft was streaming white smoke, and on advising him, was told that it was coolant as the aircraft's temperature was rising. No flak had been observed. Lt Wilson baled out at 3000 feet north of Wonsan, but landed in the choppy sea rather than on land. Lt Gow sent out a Mayday call and a SA-16 amphibious aircraft responded within the hour. While waiting for the SA-16, numerous aircraft attempted to locate Lt Wilson in the water, without success. The SA-16 landed and spotted glimpses of Lt Wilson's Mae West lifejacket, but after 35 minutes this disappeared, and he was not seen again. |

They were supplying a combat air patrol (CAP) for a pilot who had baled out. This pilot asked Stapley to move further south to avoid drawing attention to him on the ground, and while they were heading south another pilot baled out in the vicinity and they 'capped' his position also. A call then came in that a third aircraft had gone in, and on looking for his No.3 (Lt Baransky), 1Lt Stapley discovered he was missing. He found a fire in the vicinity of where Baransky had been circling, but no sign of the pilot or his aircraft. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #316. Four aircraft, piloted by Lt Marshall, Major L.B. Pearce, 2Lt Howe and Lt Parker were on a ferry flight between K-10 and K-16, in poor weather. Lt Marshall informed his flight to fly VFR or return to K-10 if unable to do so. Abreast of Masan they encountered a rainstorm but were unable to turn around because of the closeness of the mountains. Lt Marshall instructed his flight to climb through the overcast, which they proceeded to do. At 4500 feet altitude Major Pearce was seen to be having difficulty maintaining formation, and he abruptly disappeared. He was then sighted again, and ordered to climb above the overcast. Lt Marshall and the other two pilots reached clear sky at 8000 feet, but Major Pearce did not appear, and failed to respond to R/T calls. The wreckage of his aircraft was subsequently found 15 miles north of K-10. It appeared to have hit the ground under power. |

| Killed in action, in North American F-51 Mustang #301. Lt D.A. Ruiter, with Lt M. Rorke as his No.2 were on a mission when Lt Ruiter reported that his engine temperature was fluctuating, and got Lt Rorke to investigate. He found that the coolant shutter was open, and Lt Ruiter decided to return to base, escorted by Lt Rorke. Ten miles NNW of Wonsan harbour, white smoke began issuing from Lt Ruiter's Mustang, and this soon turned to black smoke, with the engine cutting out momentarily. Realising he would not get home, Lt Ruiter headed for nearby Yo-do Island, which was in friendly hands. He advised that he was going to bale out, but then changed his mind and elected to attempt a forced landing on the beach. He flew down the beach and, overshooting, attempted to turn back about 1000 feet out to sea. His left wing struck the water and his aircraft crashed, sinking almost immediately. Lt Rorke observed a brown object float away from the wreck, and directed two corvettes to search, but Lt Ruiter was not found. |

| Killed in action, in Martin Baltimore Mk III. CIRCUMSTANTIAL REPORT: 21 Squadron SAAF Baltimore Mk IV, Serial Number FA469, took off from Biferno Landing Ground, Italy, at 05h33 on a daylight raid together with ten other aircraft in formation to attack enemy Light Anti-Aircraft positions. The box in which Major De Villiers DFC and his crew were flying, could not locate their target owing to mist and cloud so they carried on with the mission, searching for transport on roads. They eventually bombed the Railway Yards and Station at Velletri. Immediately after bombing the target, the aircraft flown by Major de Villiers was seen to be on fire, losing height before breaking up in the air. No parachutes were seen to open. Moderate heavy-calibre but largely inaccurate anti-aircraft fire was encountered over the target area before, during and after bombing. Major de Villiers DFC flying on his 100th raid, together with his gallant crew were subsequently reported missing. |

| Killed in action, he and his twin brother Pieter were members of an army patrol that had a brief encounter with a group of PLAN insurgents. The latter scattered and were followed up by the patrol. On approaching a kraal where they believed some of the insurgents might be hiding, the section dumped their excess kit and fanned out to search the kraal, leaving Andries and Pieter Blaauw to guard the kit. Apparently, while so deployed, a group of insurgents came upon the two brothers, having followed the army patrol's tracks to the kraal. Andries and Pieter spotted them when they were quite close and, taking cover as best they could either side of a tree, they opened fire on the insurgents. The fire fight lasted only five minutes before the insurgents once again fled, but Andries was mortally wounded during the exchange of fire. |

| Killed in action, crew of four took off from Croughton which is the satellite airfield for Upper Heyford on a night flying exercise. Unfortunatly for this crew they were unaware of a lone German JU88 night-fighter which was sharing the same air space! Oblt. Paul Semrau (I/NJG2) and his crew had picked out the airfield of Upper Heyford for their next target and released their bomb load which fell in a line across the airfield. At the same time, Sgt, Van Der Merwe was preparing to land back at Croughton after completing their exercises - it is not known if the pilot had been informed that there was a German night-fighter operating in the area. Witnesses on the ground heard a burst of cannon and machine gun fire, before they saw a Hampden catch fire in the air. Sadly, the aircraft crashed near the airfield where it was totally destroyed, killing all four crew. |

Viljoen was later to be attached to the Bushmen unit of 201 Bn SWATF at Omega in South West Africa. On the 18th of April 1988 he was attached as Ops Medic to one of the 201 Battalion Reaction Force units. By this time he was an experienced combat medic. They were following up on a SWAPO spoor when a combined Cuban / Fapla force of approximately 200 intervened and a fierce fire fight took place. Rifleman Petrus Wama was killed by either an RPG rocket or a heatstrim in the initial attack and Viljoen was seriously wounded. He could not be found after the contact and about a month later his body was recovered by a Recce element buried in a shallow grave. Whilst still alive he was taken by SWAPO to a nearby kraal where he was murdered. |

| Killed in action, at Ongiva during Ops Protea. 5SAI B Coy Platoon 3 had penetrated the airport about midway down with minimal resistance from NE and then moved NW along the runway. Three PLAN Companies were by now concentrated at the NE Corner of the runway on the NE side of the tar road. They were keeping the Ratels at bay with Anti-Aircraft fire. We were tasked with eliminating those positions. We managed to get very close to the PLAN trenches without casualties, despite drawing heavy fire. About an hour into the 4-5 hour battle, Dave stood up to throw a grenade into the trench about 30m away and was shot in the stomach. The medic had gone down about 50m back and refused to come forward. Dave cursed him for about 2.5 hrs and then went quiet. |

| Killed in action, at Manzipambana. On 3 June some of Royston's Horse, under Captain E. G. Clerk, became detached from the main body in the heart of the forest, at Manzipambana, and were ambushed by a group of rebels vastly superior in number. Early in the action 'Corporal Alexander, C squadron, killed later in the day, did some very accurate shooting at some natives who were, as they thought, securely hidden on their side of the same kopje, sniping at members of C squadron in the valley below. These were shot by him at a range of about 500 yards.' The circumstances of Alexander's death are described in Captain Clerk's own account of the action: 'Recovering my footing, I ran down and leaped into the donga, where I found Fraser, Woolnough, Alexander, Holmes, Flynn and Hawkins. The rebels seemed to surround us immediately and I had succeeded in firing only about two shots when Alexander staggered forward crying out, "Oh, my God, pull this out, pull this out!" referring to an assegai which had been driven into the middle of his back. Someone pulled the assegai out and he sank down and died immediately. This assegai had been thrown from a distance of about ten yards up the donga by one of the enemy who was there. Almost immediately afterwards, Hawkins staggered forward and sank against the east bank just on my right, with two assegais in his back.' It was only the timely arrival of reinforcements, led by Royston, which prevented Captain Clerk's men from being overrun. Nonetheless, there were four killed, viz. Corporal Alexander and Troopers Bouck, Harding and Robertson; eleven were wounded including Trooper Hawkins who succumbed to his injuries the same evening |

| Killed in action, at Fricourt (Somme). The events of July 1st were one of the great military blunders of the WWI and ever. The troops were supposed to attack after an artillery barrage that last 7 days and could be heard in London. However the British went for quantity rather than quality with respect to the munitions, 30% off shells either failed to explode or misfired and exploded as they left the gun killing the crew. Secondly the Army HQ decided instead of rushes, the men should march in rigid controlled lines allowing the German machines guns to be brought to bear. Lt.-Col. Colmer William Donald Lynch with his battalion advanced. The leading waves were cut down by rifle and machine gun fire, the supporting troops shot down by shrapnel shells. Musketier Karl Blenk of the 169th Regiment who were defending the village stated "You didn't have to aim, we just fired into them. If only they had run, they would have overwhelmed us". Some men made the village and their bodies were discovered when the Germans gave up the village in 1917. The regiment commenced the day with over 800 men and finished the day with 80 men and 4 officers. To quote Private Pearson, "We were two years in the making and ten minutes in the destroying". |

Shells dropped everywhere. We got orders to return in the afternoon late. I think, in fact I am almost sure, that our lives were saved when a very brave officer, Capt Hoptroff (2nd Bn D Coy), made his way to our position. He wasted no time. "Get out! Get out!" he said, and was almost immediately hit by a bullet and killed outright. It is strange how in the most urgent and tragic circumstances, one notices things of minor importance." |

Featherstone recalled: "Major Burges sent his orderly to call me to instruct me about a withdrawal. Captain Jowett of C Company went with me. We found that Major Burges had been killed by another shell bursting over his head; Captain Jowett went back for instructions while I remained in charge of both companies, Capt Jowett being the last officer left to C Company. I watched him as he walked back through a world heaving with explosions and sprayed with shrapnel till he disappeared in the drifting smoke and dust for ever." |

Brigadier-General Lukin was ordered to support the attack of the 11th Royal Scots [27th Brigade] on the orchard, situated in the northern sector of Longueval, between North Street and Flers Road. The Scots would attack along North Street while B and C Companies of the 1st SAI would attack northwards in the wood, parallel to the Royal Scots. The South African attack also failed. The enemy fire scythed down the advancing troops. Throwing caution to the wind and charging forward Corporal Harold Cherry (1st Bn B Coy) and his friend Richard Carter raced through the underbrush towards an enemy trench. As they leapt in Richard Carter was shot dead and Cherry wounded. |

| Killed in action, at Battle of Narunyu. The 1st/2nd KAR ammunition stocks were very low, "C" Company being down to 5 rounds per man. A convoy from 3rd/2nd KAR under Major R. C. Hardingham, MC and Bar, (Middlesex Regiment), with two other officers, attempted to get through with ammunition and supplies. The machine gun and company porters of 3rd/2nd KAR were used to carry the loads with two platoons of No 2 Company provided for escort. The convoy was badly ambushed near the perimeter after German Askari had misled it by calling out that they were KAR. Robert Cecil Hardingham was mortally wounded, Lieutenant Charles Henry Bernard Going (2nd Rhodesia Regiment) was killed and Lieutenant C. E. Lane (King's African Rifles) was wounded. The escort NCOs rallied their men and fought back but most of the porters had by then returned to the 3rd/2nd KAR camp with their loads; 13 loads that had been discarded were found in the bush during the following day. |

On their return, they had problems with the motor and at 04:20 the aircraft ditched into the English Channel. It was a rough ditching. The aircraft broke in two just aft of the main spar and sank in seconds. Taylor had established radio contact with the DF stations and took ditching positions just before the aircraft crashed about 12 miles from the French coast. The entire crew except rear gunner Sgt.T.B.Treble managed to get out of the aircraft and into the dinghy. The latter, who came from South Africa, went down with the tail section. |

| Killed in action, at 04.41 hours on 12 May 1943 the unescorted Fort Concord (Master Francis Prideaux Ryan) was hit on the port side by one torpedo from U-456 while steaming on a non-evasive course at 10.25 knots about 440 miles north of the Azores. The ship had been in station #13 of convoy HX-237, but became a straggler in thick fog off Newfoundland on 6 May and eventually proceeded independently at full speed after reaching the rendezvous points for stragglers on 10 and 11 May in order to rejoin convoy without encountering it. The U-boat had spotted two stragglers in the evening of 11 May and chased the Fort Concord for about 11 hours before getting into a favorable attack position. The torpedo struck the after part of the engine room with a very heavy explosion that collapsed the accommodation on both sides, opened a split in the boat deck on port side and blew away the motor lifeboat. The master gave order to abandon ship as she settled rapidly on an even keel, so the 48 crew members and eight gunners (the ship was armed with one 4in, four 20mm and two machine guns) tried to lower the three remaining lifeboats in moderate sea and swell while the radio operator attempted to send distress signals. Some men were apparently trapped in the collapsed accommodations or the A.N.D. nets that were blown inboard by the explosion. However, only the starboard aft boat could be lowered before the back of the ship suddenly broke. The Fort Concord sagged amidships and sank with her bow and stern in the air about four minutes after being hit. The master, 27 crew members and all eight gunners were lost |

| Killed in action, at 01.47 hours on 12 July 1942 the Port Hunter (Master John Bentham Bradley), dispersed from convoy OS-33 at 11.00 hours on 11 July, was struck on the port side in #2 hold by one of two torpedoes from U-582 about 370 miles west-southwest of Madeira. The ship had been missed by a first spread of two torpedoes at 01.15 hours. The torpedo ignited the cargo of ammunition and the vessel disappeared after several heavy detonations, which were seen as flashes at the horizon by other ships of the dispersed convoy. A lot of debris was blown into the air and hailed down on the nearby U-boat, forcing it to dive immediately. In the meantime, the ship listed heavily to port and sank within two minutes. The motor launch HMNZS ML-1090 was lost with the vessel. When the U-boat surfaced again after 20 minutes, only burning fuel oil and wreckage were spotted at the sinking position. At daylight, the Germans examined U-582 and discovered that the net deflector had been torn away when hit by a side plate of the steamer, which was found on deck together with parts of guns and ammunition and an anchor chain hanging over both sides. The falling debris had ruptured the deck at several places and opened leaks in a fuel tank, causing a trail of oil for a while. The master, 68 crew members, 14 gunners and five passengers were lost. Three crew members sleeping on deck had been blown into the water and clung to wreckage of the motor launch until they were picked up at about 08.30 hours by HMS Rother (K 224) (Cdr R.V.E. Case, DSC and Bar, RD, RNR) after being spotted by the British steam merchant City of Windsor from the same convoy |

Three pilots of 266 Sqn on convoy patrol took off from Docking having heard that enemy aircraft might be expected. Near the convy they were told of enemy aircraft approaching then saw a Ju 88 and chased it in line. Closing to 200 yards, Plt Off Hogn Small opened fire as the enemy bomber crossed 100 yards in front of him and continued firing fleeing enemy aircraft into cloud. On emerging from cloud, only two of the three pilots, Plt Off Small and Sgt Norham Lucas rejoined. They tried to call the third pilot, Flt Lt Allen John Frederick Allen-White, on R/T but without success. Three aircraft searched him for two hours, refuelled and searched for another one and a half hours, while air/sea rescue was informed and also searched, but no trace of Allen-White or his Spitfire Vb W3308 was found |

| Killed in action, Lancaster III JB549, Took off at 23.39 hrs from R.A.F. Grimsby, Lincolnshire to attack the heart of Germany, Berlin. The second night that the allies chose this target. Together with 383 aircraft, 362 Lancasters, 12 Mosquitoes and 9 Halifaxes. The German controllers were following the stream all the way to the capital - they realised the target about 40 minutes prior to the bombing taking place. Night fighters were sent to intercept between Hannover and Bremen, but they missed them and they were then redirected to Berlin. Most of the allied bombers were shot down over the German capital with 27 aircraft being lost. The raid was largely ineffective though with bombing scattered over a large area. Reports from Berlin list 82 buildings (residential) were destroyed and 36 people on the ground killed. The damage to the industrial areas was classed as insignificant. This Lancaster is listed as missing without trace and no details can be found to claim this as being shot down, but such was the ferocity of the night - very few claims were positively identified to the German night fighters. |

| Killed in action, Hurricane I P2728, at about 5 pm, a force of 300+ enemy aircraft with fighter escort crossed the South Coast in order to fly up the Thames Estuary to bomb London for the second successive night. Twenty four squadrons of the RAF were ordered to intercept this raid by Sir Keith Park of 11 Group. At 1730 hrs 607 Squadron flying Hurricanes from Tangmere made their first contact with the Luftwaffe over Mayfield in Kent. They lined up in formation and went in before the fighter escorts could come down on them. S/Ldr. Vick was leading the patrol of twelve aircraft at 17000 feet and reported that he saw about 60/70 Ju88's and Do17's flying north in several formations of five in a V formation. As the squadron turned to attack the bombers a force of about 40/50 Me109's dived at them from 19000 feet. Blue Section was ordered to attack the bombers from underneath with Green Section carrying out a rearguard action, whilst Red and Yellow Sections (P/O Drake Yellow 3) were to attack the fighters. During the ensuing dogfights P/O Drake was shot down and killed along with P/O Parnell and P/O Lenahan, whilst Sergeants Lansdell, Spyer, and Burnell-Philips were wounded |

| Killed in action, During the Battle of El Alamein he was involved in the Miteiriya operations and on Tuesday the 27th of October 1942 his squadron were attacking an enemy position code named "Shield". The first attack by the regiment was repulsed and Harre took personal command of a tank named "Bruiser" and resumed the attack through a minefield and re-engaged the enemy. During the attack another tank of his squadron, "Beau Geste", lost a track due to an anti tank mine and Harre set out to find and assist the crew. During this time his tank was engaged by an enemy anti tank gun which blew the back bogies off "Bruiser" giving the tank an acute list and making the 75mm gun useless. The tank caught fire and Harre gave the order for the crew to abandon the tank which they did. Lieutenant Harre did not escape from the tank. |

| During the Rhodesian cease-fire, a ZANLA commander, Herbert Shungu, and 8 CTs stopped two South African Police vehicles which were carrying 6 members of the SAP and a BSAP constable. They were all relieved of the firearms, bundled into one of the trucks and driven down to the bridge over the Mazoe River in Rushinga District (Op Hurricane). They were taken onto the bridge and told to remove their shirts and hats, but sensing real danger, the policemen tried to escape, some by jumping into the river. One of the CTs opened up with his RPD. Jan Dippenaar, William du Plessis, Lourens Erasmus and Louis Franken of the SAP were all killed. Cst Grobbelaar, who was shot and wounded in the river, and Cst Eloff both survived. The body of Cst Mutasa Mandaza of the BSAP was never found and it is presumed he had drowned |

| During a patrol near the Okavango river, his Wolf hit a landmine and was tipped over, killing one man and crushing Roxo beneath it. The rest of the crew tried to lift it free, but it was too heavy. Danny Roxo, in keeping with his dauntless character, decided to make the best of things, lighting a cigarette and smoking it calmly until it was finished, then he died - still pinned beneath the Wolf. He had not complained once, nor uttered a single groan or moan, although the pain must have been excruciating. |

| Drowned at sea, en route to U.K., on "Kenilworth Castle". The RMS Kenilworth Castle and Durham Castle, bound for England, were being escorted up the English Channel by the cruiser Kent and five destroyers. All the ships were sailing without lights when, about 35 miles from Plymouth, the Kent changed her course as previously agreed between them. However there was a misunderstanding and to avoid a collision the Kenilworth Castle put over and whilst she swung clear of the Kent she collided with the stern of the destroyer Rival. Unfortunately the stern of the Rival contained two depth charges which exploded causing a gaping hole in the hull. The Kenilworth Castle took on much water and before long she was well down by her bows. Everyone believed that the Kenilworth Castle had been torpedoed. Some felt that as the bulkheads were holding there was no need to panic. However others lowered a few boats and took to them. Two of these were swamped and as a result 15 people were drowned. The Kenilworth Castle, meanwhile, limped to Plymouth where she arrived at 8 am and the remainder of the passengers disembarked. Black made it to a life boat but was washed overboard when a large wave hit it. |

| Died of wounds. The South Africans managed to clear a way through the drab and narrow streets (of Chiusi), only to be held up beyond the outskirts by enemy fire. Once again the Germans were hitting back and the Sappers (Engineers) had to bear much of the brunt. Both L/Cpl. P. Kelly and Spr. H. H. Dittman were slightly wounded by mortar bombs, but with a section sent off to join an unsuccessful effort at a left hook, work continued after dark to open up a road to Acquaviva. On 27 June the squadron suffered a further loss when Spr. A. Blair was wounded by an "S" mine. Within five minutes, Spr. A. E. Meiring was killed by another and Cpl. P. W. Renou was mortally wounded in going to Meiring's assistance. No other South African Sapper units in the whole of Italy were so severely cut up by enemy action. |

| Died of wounds, taking part in a routine vehicle/dismounted mentoring patrol with members of the Afghan National Army (ANA) to the south of Checkpoint SERAJ ULHAQ and Highway 1, Helmand Province, Afghanistan. The purpose of the patrol was to try and establish friends in the community and to identify landowners. The patrol vehicles were left at a start point (ZULU MUSTER) where the six International Security Assistance Force soldiers and an eight man ANA team set off on their dismounted patrol. He remained behind providing security and a communications link for the patrol from a JACKAL armoured vehicle. In addition, two members of the ANA also remained with their vehicles. At approximately 10h00 hours, shortly after the patrol had begun their journey back to the start point, Small Arms Fire was heard and L/Cpl Watkins was seen to collapse down into the JACKAL vehicle out of sight. Almost simultaneously the patrol came under sustained and accurate Small Arms Fire from one of the ANA troops who successfully made his escape. When the shooting stopped, the Patrol Commander and Patrol Medic ran to their vehicles where they discovered L/Cpl Watkins with major gunshot wounds to his head and face. It was immediately obvious that he had died virtually immediately as a result of these wounds. L/Cpl Watkins was evacuated by Pedro Helicopter to the Role 3 (UK) Field Hospital at Camp Bastion where he was certified dead on arrival at 12h20 hours Saturday 16 July 2011. His body was repatriated to the United Kingdom through RAF Brize Norton on Thursday 21 March 2011. |

Primed hand grenades that Major Kessler had placed into the launching tube fell back into the cockpit area when the aircraft flipped over and exploded. Major Kessler was killed instantly and although Claasen was rescued from the wrecked aircraft, he was grievously burned and succumbed to his injuries on 20 April 1982 |

| Died of wounds, gunshot wounds sustained in a shooting incident at the Essexvale Battle Camp, Op Tangent. Upon returning from R&R on that Monday, twenty members of this Company had drawn rifles and live ammunition for retraining purposes. They assembled at the end of a football field, where they stripped their weapons for cleaning prior to moving to the rifle range for firing practice. Once the group had stripped their FNs, a Pte Robert Nyamini Mapfumo suddenly cocked his rifle and opened fire on automatic at his fellow soldiers. As Mapfumo's 20 round magazine emptied, and before he could replace it with a fully charged one, Privates Mawonda and Zevezene overpowered and disarmed Mapfumo. Tragically though, four lay dead and four were seriously wounded. Cpl Stephen Randall of Bulawayo, L/Cpl Michael Wall of Que Que, Sgt Kevin Bicknell of Hartley and Pte John Tshuma of Bembesi had lost their lives. Sgt Vic Anderson, Cpl Malcolm Partridge, L/Cpl Rob Garitzio and Pte David Chiremba had been wounded. In spite of claiming insanity, Mapfumo was found guilty of murder in the High Court in Bulawayo and sentenced to death. |

| Died of wounds, during Ops Savannah while leading a patrol in a contact against a numerically superior enemy force in Central Angola approximately 30km North of Cela. On 2 January 1976 during the SADF's mop up and withdrawal from Angola, he was in command of a 5 SAI platoon approaching Cela from the north. He was advised that Cuban troops occupied the hillocks ahead of them so he led his patrol on foot in the direction of these hillocks, camping overnight in rainy weather. Early the following morning on 3 January 1976, he led a section on a reconnaissance patrol leaving Corporal Vincent Rawlings and the remainder of the platoon in their temporary base at the foot of the hill. After leading his section up a footpath to the crest of the hill, he went forward to observe the enemy positions but was immediately shot and severely wounded by enemy machine gun fire when the patrol was ambushed. At great personal risk, Corporal Rawlings moved forward and retrieved the severely wounded Officer under heavy enemy machine-gun fire, an act that earned him the Honoris Crux Silver. Unfortunately this brave young officer succumbed to his wounds and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Forward Army Surgical Hospital at Cela |

| Died of wounds, at Battle of Narunyu. The 1st/2nd KAR ammunition stocks were very low, "C" Company being down to 5 rounds per man. A convoy from 3rd/2nd KAR under Major R. C. Hardingham, MC and Bar, (Middlesex Regiment), with two other officers, attempted to get through with ammunition and supplies. The machine gun and company porters of 3rd/2nd KAR were used to carry the loads with two platoons of No 2 Company provided for escort. The convoy was badly ambushed near the perimeter after German Askari had misled it by calling out that they were KAR. Robert Cecil Hardingham was mortally wounded, Lieutenant Charles Henry Bernard Going (2nd Rhodesia Regiment) was killed and Lieutenant C. E. Lane (King's African Rifles) was wounded. The escort NCOs rallied their men and fought back but most of the porters had by then returned to the 3rd/2nd KAR camp with their loads; 13 loads that had been discarded were found in the bush during the following day. |

During an anti-insurgent patrol with 1 Parachute Battalion to the rear of the Cape Town Highlander's position and north-east of Ondangwa where mining of vehicle tracks had become a common feature, he was killed during an extremely gallant attempt to save others when saw the safety pin being accidentally extracted from a soldiers rifle-grenade by a thorn bush.

An American B-24 bomber from Ascension Island, piloted by James D. Harden, found the U-156 on the surface carrying out rescue operations of over thousand survivors from the sunken (by U-156) HMS Laconia. U-156, having radioed earlier that she would not attack any ship assisting, displayed a large Red Cross in hopes of making the Americans cancel an attack. Harden described the situation to base and was told "Sink sub" and then commenced an attack which damaged the boat. The boat radioed home about the attack and sailed west to repair damages. |

| Died of an accident. The Bulawayo Chronicle of 11 January 1918 reported that Captain Bruce had been seeing off some native askari troops at the station and his horse had been troublesome, then as he remounted to return home, the horse bolted before he was fairly in the saddle and he was not able to get his off foot in the stirrup at all. When just beyond the Headquarters Stores, the horse suddenly swerved, throwing the Captain into a tree. He was at once taken in a sidecar to the hospital, but he never regained consciousness. Death was due to internal hemorrhage caused by five fractured ribs and a broken sternum. There was also a deep gash under the jaw, apparently caused by a broken branch. |

| Died in aircraft accident, Halifax W1228 near Holtby, Yorkshire, aircraft took off from Middleton St.George at 1958 hrs to undertake an operational flight to bomb Frankfurt. Not long after taking off the aircraft caught fire roughly in the York area, given the crew would have known their proximity to York abandoning the aircraft may have been ruled out by the captain. The aircraft exploded at around 500 feet in height would would suggest that the pilot had partly descended to try and land, perhaps opting to try and land the aircraft at Pocklington which was the closest airfield. Why any of the crew did not bale out previously though is not known, the pilot would not have needed his full crew to effect the landing. It is possible that by lowering the nose of the aircraft any burning fuel inside the aircraft further back ran forward damaging their parachutes and trapping them (but purely speculation). It could be that the fire took hold so fast they did not have time. The explosion resulted in wreckage being scattered over a wide area and not surprisingly all on board the aircraft were sadly killed. |

Close to 60 men were wounded and 30 were killed, as well as a few German guards. The Typhoons came back over for a second run, but brave POWs ran in the open field, waving their arms to stop a second attack, which the pilots did when realizing their terrible mistake |

| Died in air crash, when the Lightning crashed on approach into Bentwaters. Suffered a double engine/reheat fire, had tried to eject but the canopy failed to release and attempted a forced landing into Bentwaters. Unfortunately he was unable to make the runway and the almost copybook landing into a ploughed field was enough to cause the canopy to detach and the ejection sequence to commence. Regrettably the seat required both height and forward speed to enable to parachute to deploy. |

| Died in Motor Cycle Accident, after he crashed his motorcycle into a fixed-wing aircraft. Major Andre Hattingh, an Oryx pilot, was riding to work Ysterplaat Air Force base on his motorcycle on Thursday morning. He apparently saw two vehicle lights approaching and thought it was a car, but it was the lights of a tractor towing a Dakota aircraft from the hangar to the runway. Hattingh veered to the left, but crashed into the tail wing of the aircraft and his motorcycle slid to one side. He was airlifted to 2 Military Hospital in Wynberg, where he was admitted with broken ribs and a broken nose. An emergency operation was carried out, but because Hattingh's chest was severely injured, he lost a vast quantity of blood. His heart apparently stopped during surgery, but doctors managed to resuscitate him. His condition worsened later and he died of internal bleeding |

| Died in Military Vehicle Accident, 10 kms South of Windhoek. Bulldozer on Lowbed following pilot Bakkie going South near Luiperdvallei, Windhoek. Convoy with Ratel and Samil 20 coming North. As Bakkie driver passes over a low water bridge he realises it is too narrow to allow the lowbed and the Ratel convoy at the same time, and slams on his brakes to try and signal the Lowbed to stop, but too late as it is already onto the bridge. The lowbed unfortunately can't stop in time and hits the bakkie, smashing it off the road to the left. The impact throws the lowbed out to the right where it narrowly misses the swerving Ratel but unfortunately the blade of the Bulldozer on the back, which is protruding out wider than the lowbed, makes contact and rips the Ratel open like a can of sardines. This impact then throws the Ratel off the road and the lowbed further off line impacting the Samil 20 head on. Bakkie and Samil 20 drivers killed. |

The squadron's tiffies were called upon and tried to lift the tree from the tank with a hydraulic crane. Unfortunately the tree was too heavy for the crane and it crushed Sgt.

| Died in Aircraft Accident. The autumn army manoeuvers of 1912 included the RFC for the first time. Bettington was paired with Edward Hochkiss, chief test pilot for the Bristol Aeroplane Company to fly a Bristol Coanda Monoplane 263. Taking-off from Larkhill at 07.00 on 10 September 1912 they flew directly to Port Meadow, Oxford which was the first stage. Arriving over Port Meadow at 2000 ft. On their approach for landing a quick-release catch holding a strap opened and the strap fractured a flying wire which whipped about, tearing a hole in the starboard wing. Fabric stripped off and control became impossible; the aircraft crashed into the ground at Lower Wolvercote, 120 yards (110 m) short of Port Meadow. Bettington was flung to his death from the aircraft and Hotchkiss perished in the ensuing impact |

| Died in Aircraft Accident, suffered a double flame-out and crashed into the sea 28 miles off Green Point near Scottburgh and exploded on impact with the water. The aircraft was flying in a formation of three Buccaneers for a night attack on a Naval Strike Craft that was towing a LARNE-splash target off the coast of Scottburgh, Natal and the attack started well. Under the light of a NATAC flare that burned for almost 4-minutes, each Buccaneer could re-attack the splash target towed at some 15-knots and shoot rockets or drop bombs on the moving target - something only the Buccaneers ever did. At the end of the attack, Captain Dries Marias called in and said that he had a flame out in one engine and was diverting to Durban International Airport. Not long after, he called in a second engine failure and the formation saw the flames of the two rocket ejection seats as they ejected from Buccaneer 423. Captain Dries Marias was rescued from the sea and where he confirmed that they had not transferred the bomb door fuel to the main fuel tank. Captain Brinkworth's parachute and harness were found floating in the water and they had been undone, indicating a safe and conscious landing in the sea he was never found and the search was called off after two days. Captain Brinkworth has no known grave and remains unaccounted for. For administrative purposes, he was officially declared dead on 14 August 1979 |

The Vampire had just taken off from Oakington on an instructional flight with Pilot Officer Jarvis J Ball at the controls together with his instructor. This aircraft had amber screens with P/O Ball wearing blue goggles. The Vampire made a climbing turn to the left and came up beneath the port wing of the Varsity whose pilot was seemingly unaware of its approach. The starboard wing of the Vampire prevented the instructor from seeing the Varsity. The Vampire sheared the port wing off and turned onto its back in a half roll to the left. The six crew of the Varsity and the two crew of the Vampire were all killed. Crew of the Vampire T.11 were Flying Officer A. J. Lakerman (instructor) and Pilot Officer J. J. Ball (pupil) |

| Died in Aircraft Accident, crashed approx. 32 kms south of Beaufort West, in Miles M.19 Master Mk II/III #2953. An eye witness, a Mr Nigrini who at the time was a 14 year old schoolboy met up with Desmond's nephew David Pringle Southey in 1999 at the crash site, and said he had been playing outside near their farmhouse some 2 km away on the opposite side of the road, when they heard the explosion and saw the plume of smoke. He then took David along the route that the plane had traversed after first impact, pointing out in (somewhat gory, but respectful) detail where Desmond's head had hit the first rock as he was dragged beside the plane still wearing his harness. Finally, he showed David where the burning wreckage and body had come to rest in the veld. After some 57 years, a blackened patch in the veld was still visible and David picked up fragments of glass and metal from the site. Another eye witness Marais (Ray) de Villiers was a 17-year old schoolboy at Central High School in Beaufort West. It was during their winter holidays on the farm Steynskraal, where Ray's mother lived, some 30kms south of the town, that he and his brother, Peter, suddenly saw a plume of smoke rising from near the N1 highway (then under construction). Fearing that there had been an accident, Ray's Mom scraped together bandages and first aid kit and set off with the boys down the farm road towards the N1. The tragedy which confronted them upon their arrival at the crash site on that chilly day has remained with Ray all his life. In his own words: "There were quite a number of people there already, including the Nigrinis's from Springfontein and National road construction workers. The engine of the plane was still burning and there were a few minor explosions emanating from the wreckage. The pilot's body was thrown clear as the plane slithered along the veld from the point of impact to its final position...the young pilot was dead on impact...his barrathea jacket was lying a short distance from his body". Ray had a lifelong intention to erect a memorial. However, it was not until 2008 that Ray was finally able to renew contact with the family. In an eloquent and beautifully handwritten letter he explained his motivation: "Your Uncle and many other forgotten servicemen died in the service of their country and I feel that they should be remembered in this sea of change...he saw it as his duty to fight for his country and was willing to put his life on the line in the course of that duty. This is part of our history and heritage and I want to see it preserved for future generations". If you find yourself on that lonely stretch of N1, about 32kms south of Beaufort West, with little more than 10 minutes to spare, park your vehicle alongside the road, clamber through the eastern fence and visit the memorial to Desmond which is located little more than 200m from the fence. |

Fl/Lt Duff, a South African serving in the R.A.F. and his Australian Co- pilot are buried in Driffield Cemetery. Sgt. Caldwell was taken to Tansley, where his father, the Rev'd George Caldwell, was the vicar. The tail gunner owes his life to Cpl.

| Died at sea, mistakenly bombed and sunk by a French airship AT-0 off Fecamp in the English Channel and lost with all hands. AT-0 was patrolling when at 1420 a vessel was spotted to her north east. The airship drew close for recognition purposes and according to her commander, Lieutenant (RCN) William McKinstry Heriot-Maitland-Dougall the submarine fired rockets at her. Four 52-kg bombs were dropped by the airship. The submarine disappeared but several minutes later men were seen in the water. Attempts were made by the airship to rescue the men but it proved too difficult. The airship withdrew to seek help but all the men had drowned by the time it arrived. It is clear that D3 was the victim of a serious identification error on the part of the French airship, with identification rockets being mistaken for aggressive gunfire. |

| Corporal Lilford (3rd Bn D Coy) was one of the survivors of No 16 Platoon: "The third afternoon the bombardment ceased and immediately the Germans flung two full regiments of fresh troops equal to two brigades of our army against us. For a while the issue was in doubt, and then down on our left the weight of attack broke through the remnants of the 1st and 2nd South Africans, and into the gap the whole German attack poured the forces attacking us. We were again reinforced by A Coy SA Scottish, swinging across our face into the break. We were now surrounded, and a whirl of broken men were forced into our tiny sector while we fought back to back against attacks from all sides. At last the enemy drew off, but to our despair our own artillery began methodically to shell every inch of the wood and to burst shrapnel and high explosive wholesale into us. Lieutenant Somerset tried to find a way of leading us out, but while he was searching he was shot through the forehead and killed instantly." |

| Clan Campbell SS was a British Cargo Steamer of 7,255 tons built in 1937 by Greenock Dockyard Co, Greenock for the Clan Line Steamers Ltd, Glasgow. The Clan Campbell, Capt. J. F. Vooght, formed part of a convoy which left Alexandria for Malta on March 20th 1942. The merchantmen were protected by a force of cruisers and destroyers under command of Rear Admiral Sir P. Vian. The weather on leaving port was thick and stormy but it cleared while the ships were still off Cyrenaica and they were sighted by enemy aircraft. These summoned a squadron of four Italian cruisers to the scene, but after a brisk engagement Admiral Vian drove them off. On the afternoon of the same day (22nd) the battleship Littorip and two 10,000 ton cruisers put in an appearance. The British again attacked despite heavy o dds and a torpedo hit was scored on the Littorio. The Italians then broke off the action and retired. On the 23rd the Clan Campbell was hit by bombs and also torpedoed, and had to be abandoned. Six persons, including Capt. Vooght, were killed and one was wounded. |

| Believed to have been, on routine patrols with his partner when they were tipped off about a person being robbed of a cell phone at gunpoint. The suspect took a firearm from under a pillow and pointed it at the police. They took cover and the suspect managed to run away holding the firearm. The two officers gave chase, but the suspect escaped. Later, they were shown a house where the man was supposed to be hiding. When he saw the police the suspect apparently fired at them, hitting the inspector in the chest, killing him. |

| At 17.29 hours on 30 Nov, 1942, the unescorted Llandaff Castle (Master Cornwallis Jasper Clutterbuck, OBE) was hit by two torpedoes from U-177 southeast of Lourenço Marques. The ship broke in two and sank after being hit by two coups de grâce at 17.47 and 18.09 hours. On board were 150 passengers including six Soviet diplomats with wives and children and 70 military officers with families. Three crew members were lost. The U-boat surfaced to question the survivors and as Gysae asked for the name of the ship voices replied Hardship and Queen Mary. He then asked if there were any wounded he was told that they were only wet so, amused, he left the area. The master, 155 crew members, four gunners and 150 passengers were picked up on 2 December by HMS Catterick (L 81) (Lt A. Tyson, RN) and landed at Durban. |

On board were 150 passengers including six Soviet diplomats with wives and children and 70 military officers with families. Three crew members were lost. The U-boat surfaced to question the survivors and as Gysae asked for the name of the ship voices replied Hardship and Queen Mary. He then asked if there were any wounded he was told that they were only wet so, amused, he left the area. The master, 155 crew members, four gunners and 150 passengers were picked up on 2 December by HMS Catterick (L 81) (Lt A. Tyson, RN) and landed at Durban. |
