The South African Defence Force replaced the Union Defence Force on 1 November 1957. It comprised the Army, Air Force, Navy and later the South African Medical Service. National service (diensplig) ran for much of this period. The SADF fought the Border War in South West Africa and Angola (1966–1989) and was used internally in the later apartheid years. On 27 April 1994 it was amalgamated into the South African National Defence Force together with the TBVC homeland forces and the former guerrilla armies of Umkhonto we Sizwe and the Azanian People's Liberation Army.
