White Shop: A great colour painting action poster of a flight of Messerchmidt 262 Fighters
A great action poster of a flight of Me 262 jets taking off to intercept the latest wave of terror fleigers. Very dynamic picture. Printed on 10oz vinyl suitable for outdoor use as well as indoors.


[This will give you an idea of how far the Selous Scouts could go to infiltrate and be among Blacks and in the night, the Blacks, with their black camouflage, the Blacks had no clue there were Whites sitting right next to them speaking to them. Note: Chibuku was the main beer that the Blacks drank. I think I even tasted a bit of it. It is nothing at all like the beer Whites are used to. One of my family members even worked for the company. No Whites drank chibuku. But the Selous Scouts clearly did so when they were among the Blacks. Here's a link to Chibuku: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chibuku_Shake_Shake – You'll see mention of Chibuku below. The reference to Nugget Black – is Black shoe polish named nugget. Gooks is the American Vietnam term Rhodesians also used for Black Communist Terrorists. Skuza is a word we used in chilapalapa which meant: "excuse me". Hondo is a war so hondo songs are War songs sung by the Blacks. Jan]

Below is what a Rhodesian sent me and another Rhodesian checked it and confirmed it. NB: This is full of Rhodesian slang – that’s why I tried higher up to explain it:

Reid Daily’s book would be a useful resource….according to the book they were commonly referred to as "skuzappu"

This was a little known nickname for the Selous Scouts on account of their ability to put nugget black on, smell like a walking armpit and mingle with the gooks, mostly at night when they could blend in better.

So they’d get intel about a campfire meeting that the komrads would be plotting, and they’d saunter in like invited guests and say "Skuzappu, skuzappu" (a shona slang bastardization of "excuse + move up" as they nudged oaks aside, to sit down amongst the bozeys.

They’d share the chibuku gourds, chant Hondo songs and do their commie chants and fist raises, in unison with the other gooks.

And listen to the plans of the upcoming attack.

Then melt back into the night, just like all the other units.

Then pass on the Intel to plan the counter-attack.

Video: General Von Manstein: Advice on HOPELESS sitations for Nations
Many Whites have told me that our situation is hopeless in all our nations including here in S.Africa. In this video I take a look at brilliant White men who lived through the hell of war and what they thought about hopeless and desperate situations. What did these men think who had spent years of their lives handling desperate, dangerous and hopeless situations.
