Hi

Thanks - I'm a total newbie to the AZW - just seen Zulu about 100 times or so, hopefully this year I will have some more free time and will start getting some books...

I only saw this forum after someone commented on a recent online article on Bromhead's grave. It seems a bit more chilled than RDVC - not that I'm knocking that site, :-)

That would be our man 1879Graves who brought that story to light in the uk. He has an extensive data base on Graves of who fought in the Zulu War. We are lucky to have him. Then of course there is our good friend 90th again like 1879Graves as a vast knowledge on the Zulu War.
