No 4: EYE IN THE SKY – A brief history of the South African Police Service Air Wing

 by Herman Bosman

by Michael Hamence & Winston Brent

ISBN 0-958-3880-5-9

 

Herman Bosman is a serving officer of the SA Police Service with a keen interest in the Air Wing of that service. He was fortunate to have access to their records and personnel and thus could write with an insight that any other author would have lacked. He was fortunate to have access to the private photograph collections of many of the air crew and thus many photographs are being shown for the first time. He covers the early days in South West Africa/Namibia before the SA Defence Force took charge, the Police support to the Rhodesian forces and then their return to civilian duties. It is A4, with 148 pages and 6 colour pages. Sadly it was sold out a long time ago.
