Charlie Squadron - the iron fist of the South African Defense
Force's 61 Mechanised Battalion Group - led the way on 3 October
1987 during the climactic battle on the Lomba River in Southern
Angola. Not only were they up against a vastly superior force in
terms of numbers and weaponry, but they also had to deal with a
terrain so dense that both their movement and sight were severely
impaired. Despite this, the squadron nearly wiped out the Angolan
forces' 47 Brigade. In Battle on the Lomba, the reader is taken to
the heart of the action in a dramatic recreation based on
interviews, diary entries and Facebook contributions by members of
Charlie Squadron. It is an intensely human story of how individuals
react in the face of death.
