SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 76586106BT cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "CANNER, CRISPIN JOHN" (AB, Sterf 02 09 84), matching PersonNumber 29690 (Canner, DateDeath 1984-09-02) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "76586106BT". 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.
