Why Delete?[edit]

Why would these be deleted? Are they inaccurate? They are certainly consistent with the British-style ranks and insignia that would be expected of the BDF. Venqax (talk) 00:24, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rank Inconsistency[edit]

In the Invasion of Bophuthatswana section it says that a General Turner (Chief of BDF)requested South African intervention in the country. The later section on the ranks of the BDF show that no such rank as general existed, brigadier being the highest one established. Which is it?Venqax (talk) 00:21, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
