Amazing museum, heaps of displays covering all periods. Every one was keen to chat and answer questions. Great selection of memorabilia for sale as well. Will have to bring some family to see it when everyone can travel again

Absolutely fantastic museum I can't recommend a visit enough. Staff are very knowledgeable about the history and exhibits and there are displays that don't exist anywhere else in the world. Will definitely be going back regularly.

I purchased a 3x5 Rhodesian flag from their store and had it shipped overseas. It arrived faster than expected. It came in about two weeks, very fast, the owner was extremely helpful. I would highly recommend shopping there for all your Rhodesian memorabilia. I am grateful my money is going to an organization that preserves Rhodesian history.

I recently purchased a copy of 'The Rhodesian Regiment'. It is an excellent historical record dating back to the regiment's foundation in 1899 and until being disbanded in 1981. The book clearly shows how valuable this regiment was in providing stability in Southern Africa and beyond. Sadly, and from a personal view, a stability, now 40 years on, is lost. The book is one the children and descendants of Rhodesia can justly feel proud. My grateful thanks to Hugh Bomford and the Rhodesian Services Association for the logistics of getting the book to me at a rural address, in perfect condition and good timing. Great service.

Rhodesia Regiment - recently bought this outstanding book and what a book it is. Seriously, you won't find a better volume of background, history and purpose of this largely volunteer and conscript army regiment. Thoughtful and insightful, even for one who served in it. Excellently bound and swiftly delivered to me. Highly recommended!
