KRUGER NATIONAL PARK COMMANDO--(Same Flash for both Arms).
A most appropriate Flash for this Commando, the imprint of a Lion's Paw.
"Quartermaster's Comment":- One would assume that this Commando was made up of off duty Park Rangers and the like. I would imagine that they were based at the Southern end although they might well have had other sub-bases in other parts of the Park. The Park is bigger than most people realise. From top to bottom it is about the same distance as from Johannesburg to Durban, or for those in the U.K. from London to Edinburgh. I have not seen many of these Flashes before and it comes in at a fair price.
