'Springbok' was a term used to describe the 200 000 white South African men who volunteered to serve during the Second World War. Without exception volunteers nurtured hopes for some form of post-war 'social justice'. Neil Roos provides a fresh approach in considering comradeship and social justice ethnographically as a way of focusing on ordinary Springboks' expectations and experiences during and after the war.
