With the SADF

During this era, the unit was mainly involved in area force protection, cordones and search operations assisting the local police and stock theft control.

This unit with any remaining South African units left in Namibia by 1994 was disbanded after the enclave of Walvis Bay was handed over to the new Namibian government. This followed bilateral discussions and a transitional Joint Administrative Authority to administer the territory.[1][2]
