Research notes


25 Sep 2026, Unit2 service-branch sweep: the stored Secondary Unit "Navy" 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 "Navy".
14 Oct 2026: FirstName "First Name Unknown" cleared -- a literal placeholder string, not a real name, treated as blank per John's instruction extending the Khaile (31046) fix. Initials cleared too, having been equally corrupted to the placeholder "F N U".
14 Oct 2026: SAWGP gives this man's real given name, Mark Anthony (Initials M A) -- filled in now that the junk placeholder is cleared. Regiment corrected from the garbled "Sas Uniti" to "South African Navy", per SAWGP (clearly a scrape corruption, not a real regiment name). Unit "4th Regiment" left as found -- doesn't obviously fit Navy service, flagged for review, not changed.
