From warinangola.com:  32 Battalion (32 Bn, sometimes nicknamed Buffalo Battalion or Os Terriveis - Portuguese for The Terrible Ones) [Afr: 32 Bataljon (32 Bn)] was a special infantry battalion of the SA Army, composed of black and white officers and NCO's. It had been raised in 1975 as Bravo Group, and its troops came from the FNLA, one of the former liberation movements of Angola. 32 Battalion was formally founded as a SADF unit on 27 March 1976. Unlike other SADF units, 32 Battalion was mainly deployed in southern Angola, acting as a buffer between the SADF's regular forces and its enemies. Although it was mainly used as a counter-insurgency force it was eventually also used as a semi-conventional force during the later phases of the war. After Namibian independence in 1990, the unit was withdrawn to South Africa where it was used in the counter-insurgency role and later also in the South African townships. The unit was disbanded in March 1993.
