Comment[edit]

As one who is unfamiliar with this situation, I'm not sure what Ndebeleland exactly is or what region it encompasses. Clarification (and perhaps an article of its own) would be helpful. Ground 19:24, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I removed "cousin of Carlos Mukoyi who specialised in computer engineering" in reference to Perence Shiri, as it is unreferenced, a google search turns up nothing, and it seems unlikely. Wizzy…☎ 10:24, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Names[edit]

I would like to see names of those involved in the Fifth Brigade. Close friends of mine still suffer from post traumatic stress because they as young children witnessed their family members raped and killed. A lot is being swept under the carpet and hoped to go away. Anyone with names please come forward --Jcw69 07:23, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sungri Trucks[edit]

I heard somewhere that the Fifth Brigade was given North Korean equipment like Sungri trucks, ect. Does anyone have any information on this? --Pineapple Fez 07:00, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

North Korea supplied T-54s, APCs and artillery as well as AK-47s (the rest of the army used British-issue NATO rifles with different ammunition), and also 50 trucks. By 1984, after the North Koreans departed, the British instructors were using the North Korean trucks as artillery targets. (Possibly the spares had become a problem.)

Commando operations[edit]

The role of the Fifth Brigade is light infantry. It is not a commando unit.203.80.61.102 (talk) 18:37, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
