In their very brief history of just seven years, the Selous Scouts won a fearsome reputation as the best and most effective bush soldiers in Africa. The regiment acted as a combat reconnaissance force and accounted for 68% of all terrorists killed in the Rhodesian War - whereas the Scouts only suffered 36 own casualties.

Holy crap, those guys were hardcore. 72 of them killed 1000 men all by their lonesome.
Suck on that, Spartans
