Abstract

'READY AYE READY', the motto of the Diamond Fields Horse (DFH) reflects the spirit at the time prevailing among volunteers for active service in this British Crown Colony. As stated elsewhere in this account of a colourful chapter in South Africa's history, "nowhere else in South Africa were recruits so willing to serve their country as in the Diamond Fields."
