The Shangani Patrol, comprising 34 soldiers in the service of the British South Africa Company, was ambushed and annihilated by more than 3,000 Matabele warriors during the First Matabele War in 1893.[n 1] Headed by Major Allan Wilson, the patrol, also referred to asWilson's Patrol, was attacked just north of the Shangani River in Matabeleland in Rhodesia (today Zimbabwe). Its dramatic last stand, sometimes called Wilson's Last Stand, achieved a prominent place in the British public imagination and, subsequently, in Rhodesian national history, roughly mirroring events such as the Alamo massacre or Custer's Last Stand in the United States. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shangani_Patrol CORPORAL HARRY GRAHAM KINLOCH: “B” Troop Salisbury Horse.
