It is now 13 years since National Service ended for the members of this particular company of 3 SAI / 7 SAI. Conscription no longer exists in South Africa, and the country, society, and individuals have changed a great deal in the past decade. It is perhaps fitting that we now publish the Internet version of this commemorative booklet. This is done from not only a perspective of recording the history of life in South Africa and the S.A. Defence Force at the time, but also because the original edition was quite unique. It was very rare for such an item to be published by the members concerned, and indeed we have not found anything similar.
Permission was granted at the time for the booklet to be published, and likewise authority was also granted for the taking of the many photographs which you see published here. We thank the authorities in question for their foresight at the time - in particular with regard to the taking of photographs due to the restrictive circumstances that we found ourselves in at the time.
Enjoy your trip down memory lane. Should you wish to contribute any memories or information to this site, or you knew the people mentioned herein and wish to make contact with former friends, then please feel at liberty to contact the WebMaster (see the bottom of the page).
