Produktbeschreibung
If they were not there at the time, the casual observer, would be guided by the mundane news reports that reached their countries in the 1970's. To them, the war in Rhodesia was merely just another of the many civil wars in Africa. On the surface, some may have seen it for what it was: a fight between Communism and Christianity, a war between East and West. However, as rational as these analogies sound, they ignore the strong undercurrent of mythology so prevalent in Central Africa. Rudi Stevens and Steadfast Watadzaushe were born under the same sun. Both sons of Africa. Yet the beliefs that attended their cradles were worlds apart, Their opposites separated and, as they do, their opposites attracted. Mythology determined their path and, wittingly for one and unwittingly for the other, sealed their mortal destiny.

He draws much pleasure in still being in WhatsApp touch with 17 of his BSAP Squad 3/78 training squad mates, scattered around the world as they all are.
