Message: To Matt Brazier. It's so funny only today I've got hold of this site. Strange enough I serveed in 86-87, was in Angola for straight 6 months in ops Modular, two years after that I did a camp and met a guy call Vermeulen, and he told me the story of the 12 soldiers who died that day. Tragic!! And I could see he was not 100% he even show me some photo's that was taken at the funerals. Good luck hey!
