South Coast Commando

South Coast Commando was a light infantry regiment of the South African Army. It formed part of the South African Army Infantry Formation as well as the South African Territorial Reserve.

South Coast Commando shared the same facility with Group 10 and the Regiment Congella.

South Coast Commando was amalgamated with Durban South Commando in 1994.

This new unit, along with all other Commando units was however disbanded after a decision by South African President Thabo Mbeki to disband all Commando Units. 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.
