Southern African Wargames Resource Page
It’s been a number of years since i took my web site off line. Since then i’ve seen variations of my SADF order of battles being discussed in forums and mailing list. In addition over the years i’ve come across numerous errors, corrections and of course new updated information. Accordingly i’ve decided to put the info back on line. Over the next couple of months i’ll update and/or correct the orders of battle. I’ll also add comments where I deem it appropriate. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, I can be contacted at everton13@mweb.co.za Barry
