Entumbane 2 in 1983 was the big one. 2000 Zipra fighting 2000 Zanla and Police Support Unit with a re-inforced company of 300 corralling the lot in Entumbane. After 3 days RAR arrived and took over.
@@RARAssociation there seems to be a lot of confusion about this. Again Entumbani 1 was I 1981. Emtumbame 2 was in 1883. RAR was of course involved in this also and Maj Usher got an award for his actions.
@@seanochroidheain6687 Entumbane 1 was Nov 1980. Entumbane 2 was February the following year, 1981. Please read the book.
