ref. "The Covert War" by Peter Stiff
SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 72000078PE cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "EICHOLZ, LEONARD JULIUS" (COL, Sterf 07 12 88), matching PersonNumber 30211 (Eichholz, DateDeath 1988-12-07) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "72000078PE". 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.
Database-wide FirstName/Age contamination sweep (extension), 28 Sep 2026: FirstName 'Willie' and Age 28 were forward-filled from PersonNumber 30214 down a contiguous run of 2 records -- this record's own LastName ('Elengwa'), Initials ('H'), ServiceNo ('') and DateDeath ('1982-07-14') are all genuinely distinct, confirming a different real person whose FirstName/Age were simply never captured. Unlike the first pass of this sweep, Unit is NOT touched here -- it is not part of this contamination (see the Unit-restoration correction on the related run) and this record's own Unit ('South West Africa Police Counter-Insurgency Wing: Ops-K Division (KOEVOET)') is left exactly as found. FirstName and Age CLEARED; no replacement guessed.
