This page is a tribute to those who served Rhodesia.
The list at the bottom of this page commemorates those who have died since the end of the 'Bush War' in Rhodesia. Their names may not appear on any Rhodesian Roll of Honour, they are honoured none the less. Some have died fighting wars in other countries, some have died fighting cancer, others in accidents, some have taken their own lives, some have died in peace. They survived war, in some cases more than one war. They faced hardship and happiness in their lives but their final battle was lost. Lest we, their friends and family forget. At the going down of the sun we will remember them all. We salute you, your memories live on. Farewell, Enda Bwino, Hamba Gahle, Totsiens.
Life will never be the same without you - truly, you were Men of Men.
