South African and related defence-force eras recorded on the roll. SAP, SAPS, and SWAPOL are tagged as Forces. Merchant navy and civilian war-dead are left blank. Foreign and Boer units are tagged when the regiment name is unambiguous (e.g. Australian Field Artillery → AUS).
The South African Defence Force replaced the Union Defence Force on 1 November 1957. It comprised the Army, Air Force, Navy and later the South African Medical Service. National service (diensplig) ran for much of this period. The SADF fought the Border War in South West Africa and Angola (1966–1989) and was used internally in the later apartheid years. On 27 April 1994 it was amalgamated into the South African National Defence Force together with the TBVC homeland forces and the former guerrilla armies of Umkhonto we Sizwe and the Azanian People's Liberation Army.
