“A remarkable account that bears comparison with other classics on war … a tour de force” - Dr. Paul L. MoorcraftThe book that inspired it all for us here at Fireforce Ventures, signed by the man himself, Chris Cocks! “Fireforce” is the account of Chris Cocks’s service in 3 Commando, The Rhodesian Light Infantry (RLI), during Zimbabwe’s civil war of the 1970s—a war that came to be known, almost innocuously, as ‘the bush war’. Fire Force, a tactic of total airborne/airmobile envelopment, was developed by the RLI, and became the principal strike weapon of the beleaguered Rhodesian forces in their struggle against the tide of the communist-trained and -equipped ZANLA and ZIPRA guerrillas.
