Probably a Cuban propaganda officer cooked the whole thing up and wrote some phrase that would look vaguely Afrikaans to the average Cuban/Angolan/Soviet etc. The incident also bears a striking similarity to one from the Cuban Revolution in which a militia member fatatally wounded wrote "Viva Fidel" on a wall in his blood. This incident is very well known in Cuba and much propagandised. In short the whole thing has a distinct Cuban flavour to it and nothing suggests it was anything to do with the SADF.

Haha I can't believe that silly story about the writing on the wall at Caleque is still circulating! It is rather an interesting and funny one actually.

The Cubans produced a fuzzy photo of an inscription on a wall at Caleque claimed to have been written by SADF troops. The story went that it read "MIG23 broke our hearts" in Afrikaans.

The problem with the story is that the inscription was actually claimed to read "MIK23 sak van die kart", literally "MIK23 bag from the cart", a nonsense sentence that doesn't look anything like "MiG23 broke our heart" which would be "MIG23 het ons hart gebreek".

The amrican world book encyclopedia states the following:"South african troops suffered heavy looses on february and were decisively defeated by cuban troops at cuito cuanavale,old south african mirages were outmanuevered by newer cuban migs".Now,how can you say South africa won the war you little SADF sentimentalist?
