A historical preservation project of the Rhodesian Bush War, South African Border War, Angolan Conflict and the Portuguese Colonial Wars in Africa…

PLEASE ! This is not a glorification in any way of war… rather it is a sincere attempt to preserve lost stories, history and images from now so many closed or shutdown blogs and internet sites
