The struggle for Namibia's independence is something from the past. Battles were fought, soldiers died, and after all the smoke and dust has settled another front opened. The battle to be acknowledged as a war veteran for compensation. Former soldiers from the SADF. SWATF and the police's para military wing "Koevoet" are all ignored by the Government of Namibia, rightfully understandable as they fought against the Liberation fighters or PLAN, but being rejected by South Africa is not understandable. It was the SA government who "forced" soldiers to take up arms in the struggle against Namibia's fight for freedom.
