| Hi all
In speaking of the last of Isandhlwana, the corpses of all the whites have been recovered ?
Otherwise there is how many whites missing at Isandhlwana?
Cheers

| That will never be known, there was just to many dead amongst the havoc of the camp to count, most of them could not be idenitifed anyway. |

| There was a chap ( Officer?) who went missing in action at Ulundi. Never seen again. Did he died or did he do a runner |

| Hi LH
Are you thinking of the honourable William Drummond?
If so, his body was found a few weeks later, apparently he had been ambushed by some Zulu stragglers and killed.

| Hello all
For this, I thought of a survivor who had lost his mind after a battle which could have returned to Natal, after many wanderings and was recognized much later, after having been considered dead for months or years ...
Yes Garry, once again you're right, but I have time to read the business staff. Anyway now, I only like ES, I definitely denied Rothwell ...
And the rest is nothing ...
My job get high head, I would remember my first 50 Zulu. In the evening I collapsed in a heap ... This is the loom that goes ... The future Zulu figures will be manufactured faster ...
Cheers
