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 National Defence Force was established on 27 April 1994 at the start of democratic government. It amalgamated the South African Defence Force, the defence forces of the TBVC homelands (Transkei, Bophuthatswana, Venda and Ciskei), Umkhonto we Sizwe, and the Azanian People's Liberation Army. It remains South Africa's current defence force.
