Legacy Conversations – SADF – OPS SUPER

OPS Super took place between 8 and 14 March 1982 in Namibe Province, southern Angola. Many say it was the most successful operation conducted by 32 Bn ever. It started with a Special Forces patrol finding the enemy, killing 9 and capturing 3 SWAPO soldiers. Not one escaped. The captured spoke about a terrorist base in the vicinity and the operation was on to find and destroy it…32 Bn was called in and Neil Ellis, commanding the gunships, won the HC during the battle. It was a continuous firefight taking hours and at extremely close range. This is the story of what happened that day told by Neall Ellis and two 32 Bn members, Kenneth Schwartz, and Piet Neethling. All did outstandingly well. There might be a follow-up episode on the battle in due course, from other 32 Bn members besides the ones above.
