Story
L/Cpl A.M. le Roux was a member of 7 SAI and based in the Piggs Peak area, near the Swaziland border. The SADF troops in this area were engaged in continuous border surveilance operations to prevent ANC and other insurgent activity from neighbouring countries. On Sunday 2 November he was on patrol and was riding a horse down a road regularly used by the SADF soldiers in this area, when the horse trod on a double cheese mine, planted in the road by unknown insurgents. Both L/Cpl le Roux and the horse were killed instantly in the resultant explosion.
