Special Report Transcript Episode 28, Section 4, Time 17:14

This woman is the grandmother of a young man who joined the army’s signal’s core when he was 17. He was sent to Namibia and from there to Angola. Against his will and in a SWAPO uniform, he said. The things he saw there changed him forever. He told his family that he had become an empty shell. And upon his return to civilian life he wrote his story calling it ‘The Diary of a Dying Man,’ then he committed suicide. Now his grandmother feels that the words he had written should be heard.
