Here's one of the more famous flims made during the Rhodesian Bush War.
'Frontline Rhodesia' following Rhodesian African Rifles Troopers as they conduct Fireforce Operations against Terrorist Insurgents amongst the Rhodesian Native African population in 1978.
The short film was released in 1979.

In the video you can see phenomenal examples of Rhodesian Brushstroke camouflage, "Baby Poop" painted Rifles and the famous "instinctive shooting" you hear that the Rhodesians trained to do.
All in all a great view into one of the more obscure Cold War proxy conflicts.

I hope you all enjoy!!!
*On 20 April 1978, Lord Cecil and freelance film-maker Nick Downie landed by helicopter in North East Rhodesia with an army "Fireforce" airborne unit. They both were parachute qualified and were often first and second in the stick to record the war literally first-hand. The two were recording material for use in a TV documentary they were making about the Bush War. While moving through dense undergrowth, Cecil encountered a ZANLA fighter who fired at him at a range of less than 5 metres. He was hit by two bullets, first in the thigh and then in the chest, and died after a few minutes. The Rhodesian Ministry of Defence reported him as being "killed in action". His body was returned to England for burial.* -Wiki
