Gouws , Ralph (R)

SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 81561078PC cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "GOUWS, PAULUS" (CPL, Sterf 14 11 84), matching PersonNumber 30510 (Gouws, DateDeath 1984-11-14) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "81561078PC". 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.
25 Sep 2026, Unit2 service-branch sweep: the stored Secondary Unit "Air Force" 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 "Air Force".
