A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION!! FOR COLLECTORS OF 14 YEARS +, THIS IS A DETAILED SCALE MODEL PRODUCED BY WILLIAM BRITAINS (FAMOUS FOR YEARS OF PRODUCING METAL "TOY" SOLDIERS). Two British of the 24th Foot. At about 4:20 p. The battle of Rorke's Drift had begun.

The next day the majority of the fighting had ended - harassing fire from the Zulu rifles lasted until 4:00 a. Some 11 hours later, it was finally over.

The garrison had sustained 14 dead, two more were mortally wounded and eight more were seriously wounded. Every man had some kind of wound - from minor cuts and abrasions to deep, penetrating blade and gunshot wounds. Some sustained burns in the hospital fire, others broken bones from a knobkerrie's blow. All were exhausted, having fought in the desperate, hand-to-hand struggle for nearly half a day. WE ARE AN OFFICIAL BRITAINS RETAILER AND THE PRODUCT IS BRAND NEW.
