Good evening everyone

One question that had normally, often interpellate many of you:

In all major battles of that war is always the same Zulu regiments fighting ...

Yet every organization charts of the Zulu royal army, there are unmarried regiments or married regiments , formed of men no more aged than some who fought, who never fight , they are never mentioned ...

These regiments have never existed or they were dissolved to replace losses of regiments always cited in every battle ...

How the regiments of Isandhlwana, Kambula and Gingindlovu replace their losses?

Cheers
