The Saints: The Rhodesian Light Infantry by Alexandre Binda, Chris Cocks
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 73mb
Overview: Dubbed “The Killing Machine” by Charles D. Melson, chief historian of the US Marine Corps, the RLI was a veritable ‘foreign legion’ with over 20 diverse nationalities serving in her ranks. The RLI fought the bitter Zimbabwean ‘bush war’ for 15 years, against the overwhelming tide of communist-trained guerrillas. Kill rates don’t win wars, but during its brief 19-year history, it is estimated that the RLI accounted for between 12,000 and 15,000 enemy guerrillas, for the loss of 135 men. RLI soldiers were recipients of four Silver Crosses and 42 Bronze Crosses of Rhodesia. An RLI trooper holds the world record for operational parachute descents—a staggering 73 op jumps—most under 500 feet!
