And Afrikaans is a (South African) landguage that decended from Dutch (among others).. They are similar... So we can read and understand each others landguage... Its the speaking/grammer part that gets a bit tricky...Originally Posted by Resurrection
And Nordwind - I am currently in England (how ironic)
How bout some Cheetah??? (love the paintjobs.. hehe)
Anyone know who took the pic in #10? I know this bloke.
Apologies for falling in like this but I would like to know as JD is rather particular as to where his picture is posted.

I've seen his website before - it's possible the poster found it on a Google search and posted what he found here.
Aha, yeah, come to think of it that may be the reason.
I will get him over here sometime...

Cool indeed! Too difficult to come over SANDF photos i find.
More are definately welcome!
Take care,

But "Nordwind" sounds very swedish or Scandinavien. Meaning "northwind" in swedish or "the wind from north"...
I've started a new thread "South African Defense Force" , most of the photos I have relates to it, the new mob , known as The South African National Defence Force, is but a pale shadow of what was once the most formidable fighting force in Africa, and to quite honest I dont really wish to be associated with the SANDF

South Africa's greatest soldier
Col Jan D Breytenbach, (in the middle)founder of the three best Units in Africas history, namely the South African Reconnaissance Commandos, 32 Battalion , best light infantry unit the continent of Africa has and will ever have known, and the South African Defense Force Pathfinders.
Flecha...
Big call flecha!!! If you had said today i'd agree.
BUT what about the Scouts, Rhodesian SAS and RLI?
The Recces received a lot of counter insurgent / tracker training from the Scouts during the RSA days.

I chose the name Nordwind because I was born and raised in Canada, hence the Nord part.
