24th December 2005 | Vincent McEwan Excellent site. Answered many questions for me. |
18th December 2005 | Mark Williams Fantastic site! This battle and the men who took part have facinated me since boyhood. There are not many young men around today who would even sign up, let alone fight in a battle with the odds so firmly against them. These men were real heroes! |
16th December 2005 | Klon ...Nice! verry nice! ))) |

18th November 2005 | Terence(Terry) Hook A great site, were I foud out more about Harry.
I am convinced that Harry is a relation of some sort, as my family history is centred around the west of Gloucester only a few miles from Churcham.

16th November 2005 | Bill Bourne As you can see by my name i am trying to trace any family connection |
6th November 2005 | Major Mark R.Tims I brought a copy of the film "Zulu" to Iraq when I was deployed and showed it a group of officers the other evening here at Kirkuk Regional Air Base. Needless to say (we are not historians, just military men far from home) the film and the courage it portrayed (on both sides) was entertaining and inspirational. I have seen this film no less that 20 times since boyhood and was amazed at the positive response from those whom have never viewed it. I discovered the web site and passed on from airman to Colonel alike and they have enjoyed it tremendously. Thank you for a literate and inspiring examination of this episode in British history, a particular treat for the many of us with English surnames!! Maj. Tims |
4th November 2005 | Robert S. Last A fantastic site that pays a fitting tribute to the courage, professionalism and discipline of the British Army.
Noyice how the British Army is STILL teaching the U.S. Army how to fight a war! Sad to say. |
3rd November 2005 | Bryan Robinson I was proud to serve with 5 Field Squadron from Jan 1971 to April 1976. We would celebrate with a Rorkes Drift Day each year. I love to watch the film, and to think that I served in the same Squadron as Lt John Chard. A true piece of history. |
1st November 2005 | s-e palmbring regarding the battle of isandlhwana it�s remarkable to notice the similarities between this tragedy and the battle of Little Big Horn. On both occasions commanding officers were unable to "read" the map of reality and this blindness combined with arrogance left thousands dead on "the field of glory". The great major Robert Rodgers of the famous Rodger�s Rangers used to say:" Nothing is more important in warfare than to understand what you actually see in front of You "..and you might add: nothing is more dangerous than to underestimate your enemy. |
