De Villiers , Joe (J)

DateDeath was 1900/1901-01-01 SAWGP unknown-date placeholder; set to Unknown. EstBirthYear derived from that date cleared. SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 73533754BT cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "DE VILLIERS, IZAK JOHANNES" (PTE, Sterf 21 01 77), matching PersonNumber 30017 (De Villiers, DateDeath 1977-01-21) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "73533754BT". 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.
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "SA Army" cleared -- that's the service branch (Army, as distinct from Navy/Air Force), not a specific regiment; the actual unit ("13 Maintenance Unit") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
