33 years ago today, right now I was sitting in the briefing in the hanger at New Sarum air base prior to the first Chimoio raid with 96 SAS guys, 103 other RLI guys and a whole bunch of Blue Jobs. H-hour was 07h45 on 23 November 1977... they didn't know what hit them.
...and no it wasn't a refugee camp.
RIP - Frans Nel (SAS) and Phil Haigh (Air Force)
