This video brought back memories of a good life, I too was in the BSAP, one of the first coloured Radio Technicians, I not only felt my tears drop because of this, but for the fact that there are black people commenting positively about Rhodesia! I remember in the 70's, it became popular amongst white girls to have a coloured boyfriend 1977/78,.. well, I spent a few times at Sauerstown Police Station because the cops caught me kissing a white girl!!??
Im black yet i see positive espects of the rhodesian era first we had the best Armed forces(selous Scouts) The Rhodesians even gave Zimbabwe one of the best education systems ten times better than South Africa,The rhodesians actually worked to improve things for blacks better than South Africans Its sad fellow black zimbabweans dont look at the positives of this era and learn from it
I want to say that governments which the US don't like get overthrown which isn't always for the best Rhodesia wouldn't allow multiracial rule so Ian smith was branded racist so motivated by Political correctness the UK government got what they wanted and fucked Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) up
I would like to get some more info on the parade at the end.. what caught my eye was that this is a mix of all the forces.. (at the beginning there is a RSAS in front and what i presume to be an RLI trooper)
What a fantastic portayal of the Rhodesian forces - both black and white fought together, hand-in-hand to save our proud, profitable nation from the interference of foreign governments.
But what can a small, friendly, unified nation do when pitted against the manipulative international politicians who supported and actively promoted gross atrocities against the peoples of this peaceful country with no racism, where everyone pulled together and enjoyed life.
If he West ever rescues its self the enemy aliens who engineered smashing Rhodesia should be hung in public squares every single official and behind the scenes supporter.
Precious video, my home, my memories, where my heart lives, I will always be African through and through despite being shovelled out like so many. Thanks for sharing.
As a Boer have never been really pro-British, but Ian Smith was one of Africans finest leaders. Rhodesia, depsite being named after a certain Cecil Rhodes, a man hated by black people and Boers alike, was a beautiful nation, a peace and prosperity for both black and white people. Rhodesia even had black MP's in its parliment. There was very like segregation. Rhodesia needed no foreign aid. This is how Africa could be if both black and white people help rebuild it
I've been looking up the history of Rhodesia and Afrikaner South Africa...why the hell did the west wish them destroyed? It doesn't make any sense to me!
"Our policy in the past has always been that we would have a government, in Rhodesia, based on merit and that people wouldn't worry whether you were Black or whether you were White."
Rhodesia what a glorious country. The heroes from Rhodesia will go down in history as the best that ever lived. 'We were never beaten by our enemies, only betrayed by our friends" Long Live Rhodesia
So many Western Folk Do Not Know that Mr. Lalalamaggot, because of our Enemy Alien Media/press regime governments.
Rhodesia's Military was White, and Black, and their country NEVER has any serious threats to it ever! The enmey was in London and NYC, that did them in.
The questioned popped into my head when inyanga mentioned they were recruited in Matableland. I understand that Matabeleland is the homeland of the Ndeble, so I thought i would ask anyone here about it.
@OZZAZIM74 I knew Ian Douglas Smith and he was not a racist . All the black folks who knew him said the same. You are an opportunist who has learned in the west that if you accuse someone of being a racist, all the wimps will give you what you want.
History is written by the victor, (Multiculturalism, Liberalism, etc...) will one day be retrospectively viewed for what it is; misguided white guilt. Rhodesia was certainly a more just and stable state then Zimbabwe ever will be. As for whose land it was (is) that is irrelevant, look at Europe, America and Asia, all defined (and built) by conquest, re-conquest, and change. I don't support racism, but Mugabe is the real racist here. P.S. Im Canadian and have no personal tint in the matter.
Mnangagwa, you wanted it you got it and you fucked it. Hahahahaha look at your country now because of your racist policies against the whites. May you all starve and die in your quest for your long live Zimbabwe and long live Mugabe. All you people have done is prove that you are incapable of running anything properly, if you are so good then stop pushing your begging bowl west
Rhodesia worked! Its military was intergrated, and it Black citizen's supported Ian Smith and Rhodesia, and fought too. Rhodesia WAS NEVER defeated by any military. Rhodesia was defeated by the regimes controlling London, and NYC.
Well I never knew about the integrated status of the Rhodesian Army. There is a scene in this vid. with a black drill seargent training a Rhodesian unit(1:53). I don't think Rhodesia was an apatheid state like the RSA.
I hve sen ur intrest in areas of this histry, & wld like to ask u to plse contnue wth ur reserch, its truth wil suprise u if u didn't know tht thre was an intgrted frce. Fcts like the rations tht had to be suplied for farm labrs, wth a nutrinsts list of fish etc, that smetmes had to be brougt in from Mozambqe. It certnly wasn't all bad for the Blcks. Anywy I know some Blcks that were proud to hve ben a prt of the v.well respctd Rhod Army. They were mch beter traned than oppositn.
The Rhodesian African Rifles was an entire regiment of blacks, I'm not sure if I have the name correct...I've only began learning about Rhodesia recently myself.
