  • Afrikaners zijn te gek!

  • Comment removed

  • Where are these guys now? We need such a force urgentley.

  • Served with 2 SAI and 2SSB in 1989, in Walvisbay and Zeerust respectively ...Damn, our "boys in brown" were good!

  • Not really a bold statement at all, but you must take note that I'm talking about the SA's special forces from the 80's not our current operators. They received training from Israeli special forces and SAS and then had minimum 1 year intensive bush and combat training. Any unit would love JDAM and other new battle tech, these days the side that controls the information is the best when it comes down to it, but those days before things was so high tech SA was called best by SAS & other counties

  • interesting

  • Comment removed

  • SA kicked a lot of ass and the entire world has put sanctions against them

    very brave men and women

  • Die video maak my trots om Suid Afrikaans tewees!!Lank leef die SADF van 1980

  • In the 80 and early 90s the SADF was a force not to take lightly! troop to troop comabat and on the ground fighting man to man in the 80s in oure own African landscape we wouldth kicked everybodys arses! As our troops was not soley dependend on aircover all the time like U.S troops ,that can call in a JDAM when the going gets tuff! Oure troops had to clean the are buy ther self sometimes without bombing from the air first! now the SANDF IS A TOTAL MESS,NOTHING TO BE PROUD OFF! ANC JUNK!

  • @lerox007 Thats a bold statement brother! While I will say you were one of the best, the best always say they are the best. The trick is to never believe it. American troops use Jdam cause they can. Trust me any SA bush troop would kill to have that kinda firepower at his fingertips. Americans havent had home field advantage in 200 years. We have fought a lot of people and done damn well. As of late people may not like us much, u SA's know that feeling. But as far as war goes we do alright!

  • Good footage I LOVE IT!

  • i miss the commaradery, the true discipline and respect that once was. i served in the navy for 8 years and what i see today in the sandf, really breaks my heart.  sal ons regtig die pyp kan rook as kak die fan strike?

  • the south african army is like,basically an african super power

  • I bought my first car, a Ford Corsair, with my danger pay in 1979 - all of R400 for 18 months in Ruacana/Katima/Cabinda.

    "Staan stil, jou fokkin troep, slangvel" heh heh

  • Hoor die geknars Hoor die geknars van voete op mars. Hoor die gedreun Hoor die gedreun Hoor die gedreun oor velde heen. Stryders op mars, ideale vervars wat skyn en veraad met veragting haat. Brandende vuur wat geen knegskap verduur, maar gebore uit liefde en smart. Bied ons weerstand, so gloeiend, gebrand in ons hart. O mag God ons bewaar met die trek van die laer, om ons strydende land te bewaar. Ons sal werk, ons sal groei. Ons sal veg, ons sal bloei, vir ons ou Boere land
  • @SSHAPEWA. youre full of gas. the mk and azapo etc, counted on the cubans the russians and everyone else in the world to fight for them. we did what we did alone. thats why our guys are the best mercenaries. poes

  • SADF you were the best... the white and black guys.. thanks for putting your lives on the line for us... and sorry that so many of you had to lose your lives for NOTHING....

  • the sadf scared the shit out of the world. thats why the us went to vietnam and the rest sat on thre hands during apartheid. staunch okes and duk guns. weare the manne!!!!

  • SADF don't fuck around!

  • Wow our millitary is good in camo

  • Most of us probably did'nt know the what this whole issue was about be it a rightious or wrong war. That's not the issue. Issue is there will never be an Army like that again. Not here, now you can strike and jump the fences of the Union Building's for more money. R 90 normal pay plus another R 100 danger pay was all we needed to be the best. Plus we were all laaities !

  • im a proud afrikaaner south african people underestimate SADF or we call them the reccy's(reconnaissance) but no one admits were the worlds best special forces

  • @ForeignKid00 I would not say the best one but I would say one of the best ones.

  • 10/10 The SADF was a powerful army very good and brave soldiers very well trained

    SADF kick ass

  • @lekkernaafi We were until affirmative action was implemented. Now our defense force is a striking circus.

    ex 1SAI '88 Intake

  • @Truthat77 Its going to take a lot to get what the SADF was and affirmative action lol what happend in the very small Lesotho in 1998 what a joke

  • @Truthat77

    Circus is putting it mildly....Hulle sal als lekker opfok en so gou ook!!

  • nicht vergessen bm21 and mig 21 oder 23 in krieg auf angola die cubaner sieger man

  • Baai dankie ou boet. Mooi flik!!

  • miskien moes julle meer tydgespandeer het om die ANC uit te haal dan souons nie die probleme vandag he wat ons het nie

  • @shaune78

    Miskien moet jy in n combat zone infok en sien hoe jy dit handle.

  • ANC, Mugabe feel the wind? Kenya - International Criminal Court to pursue leaders of post election violence as a result of tardy establishment setting up local tribunals,1,300 killed. This includes several cabinet ministers! The precedent is set. Policies of ethnic cleansing and murdering minorities including white farmers to scare them off their land and leave will stop - you are being watched

    And as international pressure helped you to power so it along with own people will tear you down

  • cool vid, nice job, mate.

  • Jeez that guy almost got flattened by that Rooikat at 2:38

  • excellent video man!!!!

  • hey really cool...thanx for the memories. 5 SAI bravo coy 1981 to 83

  • It was nice to see those guys firing those 81mm mortars. This was the first function I performed after basics and then later in Eenhana during the mid 1970's. I draw a lot of energy from those days and will never regret having done my national service.

  • En hulle se ons het n swak weermag gehaad!

  • Die laaste staande mag in Afrika

  • Respek manne. Ek sal altyd trots wees op my nasie en broers.

  • A sincere Dankie to all those that served, our HEROES!

  • Terloops,60% van ons kills was deur mortiere!

  • Ek het een aand op St lucia lake in a boot gele(besig om somon te vang),6 cheetahs het verby gevlieg,fokkit,ek het trots gevoel!

  • Best dayz of my life... and hoo-boy... we kicked some serious Cuban butt (and their floppy hangers on) ALL the way to the northern Angola border!

    ViVa koevoet!!! never beaten in the bush!!!

  • Fark those MRL's make a lot of smoke / dust!
