Isandlwana & Rorke's Drift.
The 1879 group was formed at the Museum of the South Wales Borderers in Brecon (now the Museum of the Royal Regiment of Wales) in 1998 by a small but dedicated group of people who had a consuming interest in the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. Many, it must be said, were also inspired by Stanley Baker's film Zulu made in 1963.
One of the aims of the Group is to locate, renovate and re-dedicate the graves of those men who made it back to Britain but whose monuments have fallen into a state of disrepair or even disappeared over time. Some members carry out research into Anglo Zulu history and genealogy and keep alive the memory of soldiers of both sides of the Anglo Zulu War. We also help through involvement with local projects in KwaZulu-Natal.
