Martyn,

You should chat with John Jenkins sometime. You would have made a fine set designer for the theater!

FIRST MATABELE WAR 1893

1 November 1893, 2,000 Matabele riflemen and 4,000 warriors attacked the British South Africa Company commanded by Major Patrick Forbes at Bembesi, about 30 miles north-east of Bulawayo














The Maxims begin to take their toll



The ammunition appears to be holding out





The action draws to a close

After the Battle of TAMAI 13TH MARCH 1884

The grim task of collecting the bodies of the Naval Brigade, York and Lancashire and Black Watch who died retaking the Gatling and Gardner guns from the Dervish begins

The Ambulances are able to take three bodies each, it will take time to retrieve all the fallen

The Naval Brigade protect the Army Medical Department personnel

The Black Watch are prepared

Officers of the Black Watch confer with their maps and watch for any Dervish activity

Pipers Lament

A wounded soldier is directed to an ambulance

Cheers
