The Cheetah is the regimental association magazine for the
Rhodesian Light Infantry (RLI). It was last published in hard-copy
format in 1980 at the disbandment of the RLI following the
cessation of the bush war in the embryonic republic of Zimbabwe.
Prior to this, the magazine, renowned for its witty and informed
content, was a much sought-after and eagerly-awaited publication
for civilians and servicemen alike, being sold commercially through
the southern African book trade. (Today, original copies change
hands for ridiculously high prices, being regarded as
collectables.) With the revival of the RLI Regimental Association
(RLIRA) in 2007, the magazine has been published on a quarterly
basis since then, in electronic format, also being viewable on the
RLIRA website www.therli.com. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of
the founding of the RLI on 1 February 1961, and 30 years after the
disbandment of the regiment, the RLIRA has decided to bring out
this hard-copy commemorative glossy edition that takes a nostalgic
journey back in time, as well as highlighting the association 's
efforts of today in keeping the regimental esprit de corps alive.
