Fitchat , Thomas Gerhard (T G)

Col (rt) Graham du Toit Last Post 10 Sep 2026: 72453301BA 2/Lieutenant Thomas Gerard Fitchat, 34 Field Workshop Squadron Technical Service Corps, killed private MVA near Hammanskraal on Pretoria-Warmbaths road, age 19. ServiceNo enriched with BA Citizen Force suffix (was bare 72453301). CauseDeath already matched (private MVA, Pretoria-Warmbaths, Hammanskraal). CONFLICTS flagged, not changed: FirstName Graham "Thomas Gerard" vs stored "Thomas Gerhard" (both fit T G; Gerhard is the Afrikaans spelling already on file); Unit Graham "34 Field Workshop Squadron" vs stored "32 Field Workshop" (UnitID 2435) - no 34 Field Workshop OrgEntity on file; left. Corps Technical Services already set. Not on Bushwar Books same-day post.

10 Sep 2026: John decision - keep FirstName Thomas Gerhard and Unit 32 Field Workshop (SAWGP/ROH). Graham Last Post Gerard / 34 Field Workshop Squadron left as cited conflict only, not applied.
25 Sep 2026, Unit2 service-branch sweep: the stored Secondary Unit "Army" was CLEARED as a duplicate. It was not a sub-unit, it was a service-branch word repeating what the Branch column already says. Secondary Unit is for sub-units -- a company, a squadron, a commando -- and this record's branch of service is unchanged at "Army".
