We speak to Daan de la Rey whose military career began in 1969 during his military service at the Army Gymnasium. He was placed as a Reserve Force Officer at 2 Regiment Bloemspruit at the end of his service. In 1977 he joined short service and served with 32 Battalion until the end of 1978. During his service, he took part in several operations, including Operation Reindeer, during which he was wounded by artillery fire. He served at the Military Intelligence Division, Directorate of Special Tasks as a training commander for UNITA in Angola. In February 1981, he was seriously injured during a landmine explosion, which resulted in the loss of his hands/arms as well as injuries to his hearing and his sight. He was the first Permanent Force member to be retained in service after being declared 100% medically unfit. From 1988 to 1991 he was part of several projects, including Project CURAMUS which investigated members who had acquired disabilities during military service. In 1990 he left the Military Service and was appointed as a public servant in the Department of Defence as Deputy Director with policy responsibility for civilian training and development, a position he held until his retirement in November 2014. During his career he received, among other things, the Southern Cross Decoration and the Order of Good Hope. He is married to Gretha and is blessed with four children and three grandchildren.

Chaplain's Corner - Andre Olivier's message for the week
The British Paratroopers talk about Arnhem, 1944, and the French Foreign Legion talks about Dien Bien Phu, 1954. 32 Battalion, known in Portuguese as Os Terríveis (The Terrible Ones), talks about the Battle of Savate. It was at Savate, known as Operation Tiro-Tiro, that about 250 members of the famous South African light infantry unit attacked a FAPLA (Angolan Army) Brigade. They were up against approximately 1,200 entrenched troops armed with anti-aircraft guns as well as two light tanks. The attacking 32 Battalion members had no air support, no artillery support, and no friendly armour to assist. They only had an 81mm mortar platoon that failed to provide effective cover. Nevertheless, the soldiers relentlessly advanced to battle. In a furious battle, they succeeded in overrunning the enemy but lost 15 men to God and another 30 wounded. This is the story of the Battle of Savate as told by those participating: Alpha Coy – Leon Grobler Foxtrot Coy – Renier “Doiby” Coetzee, Recce Wing – Rick Lobb (Stopper Groups), and for the HQ Element advancing with the companies – Justin Taylor.

After years of operations, including as a mountaineering instructor, and team leader, he left for Wits University to study further. Soon, he was back at 1 Recce Regiment and eyed (wrongly) with much suspicion by the higher-ups. When he left 1 Recce he served for seven years with 2 Recce during periodical call-ups.
