The British fought against the Boers and later on the Aussies were called in to aid the Bristish. It was only then that the Boers were truly beaten. They were summoned as they were the only soldiers that could combat the Boers' Guerrilla tactics. They were natural born soldiers that could live off the land, track and shoot to good effect. There are numerous reports written in Boer diaries and letters, telling of how the Aussies slipped into their camps after killing off their sentries as they slept. It was fought at the end of the 19th century in South Africa. The Dutch emigre settlers were aided in part by Germany. The use of geurrilla tactics was as effective for the Boers as poor leadership was for the mighty British. 'Black Week' describes 3 consecutive & considerable setbacks inflicted on the colonial power: Stormberg, Magersfontein & Colenso in December 1899.
