Kavaliers

Overview

General de Wet asks Boer soldier and Kavalier leader Chris Botha to select 100 of his best men for a “suicide mission” behind enemy lines. First the Kavaliers steal ammunition from right under the noses of the British, and then they leave behind a note taunting the enemy about it.
