South African Defence Force - Infantry School 1986

Situated on the outskirts of Oudtshoorn, the School of Infantry trained the junior leaders for South Africa's mot. Infantry. The training was rigorous by any standards and less than half the candidates completed the course. It involved a platoon weapons phase, an endurance march covering 140 kilometers through the Swartberg mountains, a conventional warfare phase, urban and rural counterinsugency phases. The candidates were deployed operationally in Sector 10 along the SWA border as well as during the riots in support of the South African Police (SAP). Some of the footage in this clip does not depict members of Infantry School but serves to provide historical context.

South African Defence Force: Border War Firefight

By the mid-1980s the SADF was modernised to the point where it was able to conduct both conventional and counterinsurgency operations. The footage depicts the quality of the Infantry in fire and movement as well as trench-clearing. Infantry tactics focused on aggression and personal initiative during the firefight. Note the weapon-handling of the conscripts, suggesting a high level of discipline, as well as confidence in the weapons themselves. Given the relatively small size of the white population in South Africa, the military was nevertheless, much like the Rhodesians, quite loss-averse.
