It formed part of the South African Army Infantry Formation as well as the South African Territorial Reserve. HistoryOriginThis unit was originally part of the Heilbron Commando before forming the Sasolburg Commando in February 1962. OperationsWith the SADFWhere the SASOL Commando was responsible for the SASOL and NATREF refineries, the Sasolburg Commando was responsible for all other factories and installations in the larger district. The development of industries such as the African Explosives and Chemical Industries (AECI) and Karbochem increased the responsibility on the Sasolburg Commando as workers of these industries with Citizen Force Camp requirements were also transferred to the Sasolburg Commando. From Commando to RegimentThe Sasolburg Commando was reclassified as a regiment in June 1985, even though its expanded responsibilities had existed since 4 February 1985. This new Regiment exercised its Freedom of Entry into Sasolburg for the first time on 25 October 1986. The counter-insurgency battalionIn 1986 a decision was made that the Regiment would also be reclassed as a counter insurgency battalion and meant that it could be utilised in the black townships for riot control as well.[1] CommandThe unit was initially under the command of Group 17 but was transferred to Group 42 in 1991, so that several units could be merged and be used in the greater Witwatersrand. With the SANDFDisbandmentThis unit, along with all other Commando units was disbanded after a decision by South African President Thabo Mbeki to disband all Commando Units.[2][3] 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.[4] Leadership{{Post-start|caption=Leadership|float=}}{{Post-header|post-name=Honorary Colonels}}{{Post-header|post-name=Commanding Officers}}{{Post-member|from-date=nd|post-incumbent=Commandant Johannes J Retief*|to-date=nd}}{{Post-header|post-name=Regimental Sergeants Major}}{{Post-end}}
