SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 65943037PE cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "BURGER, JOSEPH JOHANNES" (WO2, Sterf 04 06 78), matching PersonNumber 29651 (Burger, DateDeath 1978-06-04) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "65943037PE". Left as an unresolved collision otherwise -- this correction is specific to this one PDF-confirmed case, not a general claim this record's other data is wrong.
