Limpopo Commando initially resorted under Far North Command, but with the development of the Soutpansberg Military Area was transferred to that Command.
Limpopo Commando was responsible for the stretch from Pontdrift east up to the nature reserve west of Messina.
This unit was also involved in area force protection, search and cordones as well as stock theft control assistance to the local police.
This unit, along with all other Commando units was disbanded after a decision by South African President Thabo Mbeki to disband all Commando Units. [1] [2] The Commando system was phased out between 2003 and 2008 "because of the role it played in the apartheid era", according to the Minister of Safety and Security Charles Nqakula. [3]
