Paint ball players wait for reinforcements
The Rangers had to defend their position against the attacking Militia forces until reinforcements could arrive
Saturday morning’s paint ball match saw two teams going head-to-head on the N11, one team playing the Rangers and the other playing the Militia.
The Rangers had to defend their position against the attacking Militia forces until reinforcements could arrive.
‘The Battle of Mogadishu: Day of the Rangers’ was part of ‘Operation Gothic Serpent’ and was fought on October 3 and 4, 1993, in Mogadishu. Saturday’s re-enactment saw flags being hoisted and the players giving it their all as they always do!
Shots were fired and positions defended until the winning team finally triumphed, not worrying about the bruises they picked up along the way. Never is warfare this much fun!
Another event will be held soon.
