I was in a Jumpmaster MTT run by 3/3rd SFG(A) out of 1 Commando outside of Harare in 1996. Came straight from a JCET in Uganda and had a blast there. Food was great (and cheap), and it seemed like they had things under control. Later, in early 2000, I was at Lake Malawi just at the end of an ACRI mission and some ex-pats showed up at the hotel that we were staying at. They had been chased off of their ranch while under fire from local thugs. They literally left with the clothes on their back because they had basically been attacked on their property because they were whites. Sad state of affairs there. I would love to go back someday.
