Military and Police

Rhodesian Security Forces consisted of the Rhodesian Army, Royal Rhodesian Air Force, British South Africa Police, Rhodesian Ministry of Internal Affairs (INTAF) and the Guard Force.

Time magazine reported in June 1977 that "man for man, the Rhodesian army ranks among the world's finest fighting units."

    The schoolmaster is abroad! And I trust to him armed with his primer against the soldier in full military array.
    Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832)

    Georges Bataille (1897–1962)
