Can anyone help? I have seen it on the forum. But cannot find it again. It was a discussion that included a post about a Soldier that was presumably tortured to death by the Zulu.

hi impi . Not sure where it is but I think I may have posted a reply , of course you are referring to Trpr Rubenheim who was killed in a skirmish the day before Ulundi when the zulus almost ambushed Buller and his mounted force . I think by memory another couple were also killed in the same action . This same action resulted in Sgt . Edmund O' Toole being awarded the VC for helping Lord Beresford save Sgt Fitzmaurice , Fitzmaurice was lifted up onto Beresford's horse by Beresford while O'Toole held back the zulus , O'Toole had to hand up his weapon and help Fitzmaurice stay in the saddle as Fitzmaurice was a little stunned after his fall , with the zulus gaining on them there wasnt an armed man between O'Toole and the enemy. cheers 90th.
