Remember 16 June 1976

I was wondering how many people remember back that far. It is a day that has allways stuck in my mind, I was on a "Troep train " back from a border stint when the train stopped at Prieska or Upington (Memory fading) , and a lot of Brass and "Dankie Tannies" on the station. One of the senior officers then told us about the riots that had started, all of us where then in a huge hurry to get back and take care of loved ones at home.

A bit before my time.

Thanks for sharing - so different at the time.

Yes a turning point second to none.
