Sector 10 Oshakati

Mk 3 Metal Detector Instructions

For most of us Sappers we are all to intimate with MYNJAG or Mine Hunts, walking miles a day with our infantry protectors, the stress and concentration with boredom and sometime fun, yes fun could be had even on the border. The exercise was good twice a week with these patrols, the patrol with the mine detector took some getting used to due to the weight and time it is in the hand, also that you still had your R4 to carry. 

Some Mynjag pics below for you to ponder over....

Anti Personnel Mines

One of our tools were two dowel sticks (soek steek stokke), which were used to search for mines. Bloody stupid if you ask me.
