Here we have on auction a Rhodesian bushwar era original period item - a "RNG" stamped brass issue compass in great condition. Oh the stories and places that htis compass has likely been too - a real find from back in the day! The item is in reasonably good shape, but does has some wear-and-tear! The main fuid housing is intact - no leaks fo fluid, there appears to be nO bubble. Therefore as a compass this item is still usable! There is however s ascrew missin on the top cover for one of the guards over the see-through cover/ flap, but besides that it is good-to-go and would make an excellent piece for display and/ or reenactment! The stamped "RNG" refers to the Rhodesia and Nayassaland Governement which proceeded the UDI of Rhodesia and these compasses would have been absorbed as is into the armed forces of Rhodesia post-UDI.

The crashes of Air Rhodesia Flight RH825 and Air Rhodesia Flight RH827 were two of the deadliest aviation incidents in the history of Zimbabweand they werent accidents. In this in-depth exploration of a little-known piece of southern African history, Ian Pringle tells a true story of terrorism, sabotage, and survival. Pringle, who lived in Rhodesia at the time of the crashes, collected interviews from survivors, witnesses, pilots, ground staff, accident investigators, family members, and experts. These testimonies reveal stories of heroism and courage in the wake of a major tragedy. Air Rhodesia Flight RH825 was the first airliner ever to be shot down by Russian surface-to-air guided missile. The surviving passengers tell the story of the crash and its horrific aftermath. Five months later, Air Rhodesia Flight RH827 was downed in the same way. This time, there were no survivors. In addition to presenting vivid first-person testimonies, Pringle examines how the attacksand the ensuing collective rage of the Rhodesian people at those responsiblecontributed to the instability of the country. He shows how these tragedies indirectly led to the rise of Robert Mugabe and laid the groundwork for a very different future for the African nation. Paperback, 240 pages.
