[edit] Opening sentence incorrect

The opening sentence contains a very muddled "definition". Commando is the name of the basic fighting unit of the Boer forces and not a description/designation of the individual member of the unit. Unlike the commonly understood modern usage one could never refer to an individaul member of a Boer commando as "a commando". Furthermore this article does not belong in the category "South African Special Forces". Roger 18:24, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
