Hi all
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

They were replaced in most cases with maturing udibi - the mat carriers who became eligible for service. Regards, Ken

I wonder if some amaviyo of the regiments that existed in 1879 and we are in no battles of the war were not dissolved to repair the losses of the other regiments, battles after battles
Zulu they had this kind of practice
