      For those curious about this Conflict there is a Documentary without censoring on CZcams called "Africa Addio" from the 1960s which follows these Mercenaries and doesn't shy away from anything. I'm to this Day surprised CZcams allows it on here but yeah, make use of it

      In fact, almost 40% of the Mercenaries were former Axis WW2 Veterans who also often wore their Iron Crosses in the Congo of which the most famous one is "Siegfried Müller" aka "Kongo Müller" who was the only Axis WW2 Vet under Hoare who was very very open towards the Press and didn't care about being misrepresented or other Media Nonsense.

    Mad Mike lived in Hilton, Kwa-Zulu Natal in the 80's. I moved to that village in the early 90's. It was reported in I believe The Natal Witness that a large cache of firearms and explosives had been unearthed in the garden of a property in the village, and this was attributed to Mike.
    At the time many were storing - shall we say - supplies and tools so without knowledge of the property it's difficult to say if it was actually his cache discovered.
    Hilton to this day is a lovely village, about 20min away from Pietermaritzburg. And many flight hours away from me currently, which sometimes I lament.

    1000% recommend Lt. Col Mike Hoare's audiobooks if you want something incredible to listen to. From his time fighting a brutal war in the Congo, all the way to his failed coup against the Seychelles, and with many non-combat adventures around, all of which are fantastic and actually read by the man himself. His stories of the South African involvement in the Seychelles Affair are very interesting indeed, but for me the greatest accounts are of the Congo Crisis and the incredible military actions involved, from amphibious assaults to ultra-long range raids behind enemy lines.
    10/10 audiobooks, would listen to the words "ritual torture" another thousand times.

    • @tehwin89
      @tehwin89 Před 2 měsíci +3

      Now I've seen the video as well, I'll say his account of the Seychelles Affair was completely different, especially everything in regards to the supposed airline highjacking, Mikes account is massively different. Obviously he has reasons to lie, but from much of what I've read I feel as though he is probably telling far more of the truth than many other men involved, and his time in prison was really really bad. Would recommend you listen to it Dank, all those books are so incredibly good.

If you know mob history, he definitely did not take part in the killings of Carmine Galante and Paul Castellano, both of which are some of the most publicised mob hits. Lastly, his so called ‘mentor’ or ‘friend’, Roy Demeo, barely or even didn’t know who he was and the Demeo Crew are actually the real Mad Lads here since they carried out dozens of hits for the mob in such a brutal fashion.
