Subject: Is there an Isandlwana national memorial? Mon Dec 24, 2012 12:21 pm
Hi guys,
some of us may be familiar with the memorial to the 66th foot in Reading after their second Afghan campaign and in particular the disaster at maiwand where around 300 were killed.
This got me thinking if there was a memorialin this vountry to the 24th and the casualties at isandlwana. I don't recall anyone talking about one
There is a book called "But Burdens Shouldered" by Tim Day.
It was published in1995, the forward is by Ian Knight. It lists the graves and memorials in the UK in regards to the AZW.
