Fascinating to hear from the other side. It would be even more amazing if you can get a Cuban vet to come speak.
They are still living under a dictatorship, internet over there is not only crap is limited...so unless he defected, no chance
Tank you Andrew thank you Igor.
Salute to you. Todays enemy is tomorrow's friend. Now, with the war over,its interesting to hear from someone i once fought against. Would love to visit you. Like you said,we were not enemies, but eponants like a chess set,moved by politicians.
Thank you Igor, there is definitely more to hear from you. I think Andrew should ask you for another interview 😊
Spasiva Igor. It is really interesting to listen to your experience.
Salute / Saluut.
Thanks Igor, amazing to hear from both sides and really adds depth to this channel. Maybe some more interviews like this from other so called "enemies" would be great and an important archive for the future to hear from them as well, no matter who they were to us.
It amazes me no end , People go out to fight wars against people they don't know or even hate , only to discover after all the heartache and tragedy that the people they were fighting were no different to themselves . They all are human beings with desires and fears and ambitions like everyone else . At the end we ask ourselves what that was all about.
Very unfortunate Doc, but a sad reality in which we had no option
Yes place for Igor in Swellendam too
He speaks English with a Russian Portuguese accent.

I see they had Land Rovers. I wonder where those came from?
Portugese Army left hundreds behind I suppose, Koos
Thanks, that makes sense.
thank you legacy! spasiva Igor , nice to know you speak my language, Greek., i enjoyed this podcast
In Swapo we had some Land rover British made who somehow made their way to us someone knows how.
@@josephnakale7343 Again, come and tell us, we wish to know more, Koos
Hi. Do you have any interviews with members of the South African Irish Regiment?
Not that I recall. Some NSM might mention the unit fleetingly but no one spoke in detail about the Regiment. They are welcome here. Koos
@@LegacyConversations I live in hope. Thanks!
Just subscribe, I am sure a few will arrive at some stage. The closest we got was the Pretoria Highlanders which I know is not the same - th-cam.com/video/rqadfTxgT4Q/w-d-xo.html
If any Irish Regiment men reads here, contact me, please, Koos.
We have done with Tony Reis of Cape Town Caledonian pipe band
@@LegacyConversations Having listened to a few chats up to now, I thought I already did subscribe 😆. Done and dusted
I must admit this one was too difficult to watch! I know it was a long time ago and I know this man was just doing what he was ordered to do.... but for me it brought back horrible memories of lost friends and relatives! ❤🩹
I think it’s good to hear both sides of the story, after all we were also only doing what we were ordered to.
