Re: Section Ranger Shot by SANDF Patrol
The thing is, the above sentence is the only relevant one. The rest is irrelevant regarding the incident.vinkie wrote:
Houtboschrand section ranger Andrew Desmet was shot in the stomach during a joint operation between SANParks and the SA National Defence Force on Friday night, spokesman Reynold Thakhuli said in a statement.

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.
Re: Section Ranger Shot by SANDF Patrol
To prevent this happening, and it is an long known type of OPS(tactic) ; let one arm of your force take responsibility for a specific area and froze the area(no go) and nobody move there.If somebody moves e.g. at night during your patrols you shoot without fear for own forces.This incident could only happen due to bad communication or illegal actions.

Re: Section Ranger Shot by SANDF Patrol
I don't believe for one minute that this was a "friendly fire" incident. If it was a member of the SANDF that shot Andrew, they would have released a statement by now.
