Who Dares Lives consists of three parts: Part I: The first part
tells the story of an eleven-year-old boy as he begins to turn into
a man. Lenord has endured poverty and hardship, but through tears
and sweat his story turns from mud to glory. It is an inspirational
memoir celebrating life's ups and downs. Part II and III: Readers
are made aware of unexpected events that can befall them. It ranges
from the perils of modern society and personal safety to medical
emergencies and even man-made and natural disasters. The key
objective of these parts is the development of an analytical
mindset to tackle these challenges proactively. Learn how to think
and act like a Bush War veteran while equipping yourself with a
defence and survival mindset. Above all, you must learn that the
behaviour that may save your life is cultivated by thinking and
behaving within the parameters of emotional intelligence patterns
so that decision-making takes precedence during dangerous
situations. Understanding the human psychological state in
life-or-death situations is the apex you can reach in the
development of situational awareness, turning you into a force
multiplier.
Die rowwe en eerlike vertelling van 'n 'Bat in the bosoorloe van
Namibie en Angola. 19 en Gewapen is 'n aksiebelaaide vertelling van
Granger Korff se twee diensjare in 1980/81 saam met 1
Valskermbataljon tydens die hoogtepunt van die Suid Afrikaanse
Bosoorlog in Suid Wes Afrika (Namibie) en Angola. Afgesien van die
standaard teen-insurgensie aktiwiteite van die Fire Force
krygsverrigtinge asook lokvalle en patrollies om SWAPO guerrillas
te vind en te vernietig, was hy ook betrokke by verskeie
noemenswaardige konvensionele oorgrensoperasies deur die Suid
Afrikaanse Weermag (SAW) soos Protea, Daisy en Carnation, wat in
Angola in beweeg het teen FAPLA (Angolese MPLA troepe) sowel as
hulle Kubaanse en Sowjetbondgenote. Korff se vormingsjare op die
Oos-Rand as 'n straatbakleiende jeug het 'n invloed op sy
toekomstige militere loopbaan gehad wat ontsier was deur
omstredenheid. Hy was konstant in die moeilikheid: Sy afwesigheid
sonder verlof op die vooraand van die oorlog omdat hy na die front
beweeg het; dat hy verskyn het voor 'n krygsraad na hy n
sersantmajoor in trane gehad het na hy hom aangerand het voor sy
troepe; vuis gevegte met die dwelmeenheid en sy in hegtenisname na
die uitmergelende sewe-week, 700km Recce keuringsuithouresies, is
maar net 'n paar van die kleurvolle staaltjies wat hierdie
vertelling van diens in die Suid Afrikaanse Weermag deurspikkel. Sy
skryfstyl is pittig, brutaal, selfveragtend en by tye humoristies -
maar altyd eerlik.
