I quite enjoyed doing it. chopping the footage into 15 min lengths and converting the vob's into mp4. it was as a result from an enquiry from a guy in the other place who wondered if there was any footage on the making of Zulu Dawn..thanks for putting this on the forum Littlehand.

Well done Les Interesting in episode 1 is the old information 'flying wing' on the side of Blacks Kopie and the old model. Touch of Nostalgia there, around the half wall was a glass case with shields of all the regiments that took part.

Les Im sure its tucked away in one of the museums/archives. I seem to remember Ken Gillings talking about it some time back. The model was brilliant in that it was perfectly orientated to the battlefield and being a third of the way up the koppie it was a panoramic view so it became really easy to place the camp, the defence line and the attacks. Its a great pity that the centre was vandalised so badly and subsequently removed. Cheers
