I was in that army and I'm proud of it. At least the SADF soldiers then were disciplined and well trained, not toy-toying pension seeking masses.

@dynasty:
I always recall Lincoln's Gettysburg speech....
'With charity for all, with malice towards none, With firmness in the right as God gives us to believe in the right...'
Gen Malan believed in what he deemed right, just as much as we have a Government today that equally believes in the right (well.... mostly in the left!).
It is within our realms that we promote respect and understanding so that there is a better chance of a future for all of us without enmity, hatred and name-calling!
Who knows, tomorrow, there might be a 'different' belief in what a God gives our people (leaders) to understand as right....... and it might turn out to be RIGHT!
