A note on the photographs
Most of the colour photographs in this book were taken with an Olympus
OM1, 35mm single lens reflex camera. The lenses used were a 50mm
Olympus f1.2, a 70 – 220 Soligor f2.4 zoom lens with macro. The film used
was Kodak 400ASA colour print film, with the exception of the first spool of
Agfa 50ASA colour transparency film. The monochrome shots were taken
with an SADF-issue Kodak 35mm SLR camera and SADF-issue b&w film of
unknown speed.
The cover photograph of the author under canopy over Cassinga was taken
by Sergeant Des Steenkamp, a member of A Company in the attack group.
