JB was initially appalled by the conditions he met during his first visit to the concentration camps and thereafter had to decide how to improve water supply, sanitation, catering , hospital and financial management. Quite a challenge for a young 26 year old administrator.
JB also undertook treks north and east from Johannesburg to East Transvaal, to Zoutpansberg, Woodbush and Komatipoort which sits on the borders with Mozambique and Swaziland (now Eswatini)
