Talk:Solly Shoke

Honours and Awards
1 - Does Gen Shoke really have the OMBG? It was awarded to the G5 unit, not to its individual members. He does not appear to wear the insignia.

2 - He does not have the General Service Medal - he has the Tshumelo Ikatelaho. Arthur R (talk) 17:57, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Terrorist career
The article describes Shoke as a "commander fighting against the South African government in the 1980s". Did he actually see any fighting?203.184.41.226 (talk) 02:55, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

Field commander?
The MK was organised and operated as a terrorist organization, not an army. Did Shoke see any "fighting" as a "field commander", if so was that conducting terrorist acts, or more likely sending others to commit terrorist acts? Or did he see action as field commander during the "Bush War", in actual combat?Royalcourtier (talk) 08:46, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
