| As we discussed this some time ago at length I thought the members may like to be kept up to date. The papers have been located by Ken Gillings. He's seaerched through a portion of the boxes and found the report George drew up on the Cairns. The photos that accompanied the report are a touch more elusive. There are however a few more boxes to explore. Ken tells me he will be giving them some attention as soon as he is able.
The report does not however mention any cairns on the ridge. So the only reference to those possible cairns was the report in the Journal of " cairns in the forward positions".

| Hi Littlehand
I have that publication. George wrote pamphlets covering vitually every battle and place of interest in Zululand for the National Monuments Council. He really was prolific. Unfortunatly they were generally just superficial overviews. Great collectors items. My copy has R5.00 written on it. At R12 to the GBP do the sums.
Well found (yet again).
Regards
