Regiment Christiaan Beyers was established as Regiment Botha at Ermelo on 1 May 1946. It was named after the Prime Minister and Boer general. The unit was destroyed by the Deutsches Afrika Korps on Totensontag, November 23, 1941. The survivors were reorganised as 2 Regt Botha was back at full strength by April 1942. In 1951 2 Regt Botha became the Regiment Christiaan Beyers, a motorised infantry regiment of the Active Citizen Force. In 1964 It was renamed Regiment Limpopo, but in the late 1960s it reverted to Regiment Christiaan Beyers again.
