Food for thought isn't it, each and every one of them, a son, a husband, a father or brother, perhaps, doubtless in the eyes of some, their deaths were all part of the show and therefore, a necessity, but, quite frankly, I don't think all the wealth under the Rand was worth even just a single one of them!

I agree with you. As is always the case in such wars, the men with blood on their hands shed none of their own. Although the Boer War is commemorated in other countries of the old Empire, it is only in South Africa that its adverse social consequences are still felt. These are, however, much less evident now that the realities of life in the 21st Century are upon us.
Regards
Brett
