Hi all.
Decided to post the cover of this journal as Photographs of LT. Vause & LT. Raw are indeed rare .
The caption inside the book is as follows .......... '' The recently discovered photograph of Lt. Vause ( L ) and Lt. Raw ( R ) .
Lt. Raw was the officer who first met the attacking Zulu force at Isandlwana . He died aged 32 and is buried at Pietermaritzburg.

Hello 90th

I read somewhere that this photography of RAW (and VAUSE) was not authenticated by his descendants.

You can also find this photography in Adrian GREAVES's book "Isandlwana" (2001).

The photograph appears to show Lt. Vause, but the other has been stated as not being Lt. Raw. Have a look at the photographs in Zulu Victory by Peter Quantrill and Ron Lock, there is a caption under one indicating Lt. Raw, the only image of him in existence apparently.

Hello Colin J.

On the photograph (in "zulu victory") C. RAW is he the man without hat?

Thanks for your answer.

Hi ymob.
To me it seems he is waering a hat but a non - military style . His shirt also seems to be of a non - military style .
He is the second in from the right , he appears to be holding something in his right hand and using his left hand
as if cleaning it ???.
cheers 90th. Idea

Hi Colin.
You may be right as the chap ( Raw ) in zulu victory looks different to the chap with Vause on the cover of AZWHS Journal .
cheers 90th.
