Legendary South African soldier, Jan Breytenbach fought the good fight, kept the Faith and now has finished his race.
On Father's Day, Sunday,16 June, at the age of 91, the father of South African Special Forces went to be with his Heavenly Father and has been called by his Commander in Chief to Higher Service.
Jan Breytenbach had a distinguished career in the SADF.
Colonel Breytenbach not only founded the South African Special Forces (the Reconnaissance Commandos, or “Recces”) and 44 Parachute Brigade, but 32 Battalion as well. We praise God for a life well lived, for a courageous Christian soldier who made vital contributions to the development of the South African Defence Force and who played a major role in bringing about the defeat of the Soviet led communist forces in Angola.
In doing so he greatly contributed to the defeat of the Soviet Union and the winning of the Cold War.
Colonel Breytenbach was a good friend of the Mission and an energetic and enthusiastic witness for Christ.
