Oct 18, 2021
A journey that would destroy so many is brilliantly written about in this. From the initial shock of the twin towers on that fateful day to the day of retirement, we are carried through many challenges.
Informative and heartbreaking, you learn things that would never cross your mind and feel so emotional.
I was hooked from the start and struggled to put it down. The pictures used really paint a bigger picture of family (which is what the military is), of togetherness and some of the numerous highs and lows that are faced each and every day.
If you're a fan of real life stories, want an idea of past events or generally like to emerse yourself in a brilliant read then this would be a great place to start.

What's not so famous is the events immediately preceding said battle, where the Zulu warriors wiped out a force of British redcoats at the battle of Isandlwhana, after the British forces had invaded Zululand.
That's the focus of this film, showing the hubris and arrogance of the British High Command as they invaded in January 1879, believing the Zuls would be easy pray for a 'modern, sophisticated army'.
How wrong they were.
It's one of the worst defeats The British Army had ever suffered against an indigenous foe equipped with vastly inferior military technology.
