Research notes
SAWGP details.php?id=30609: BEM, LG Sup 7 June 1951 pg. 3097 (source of the smeared citation). Wikipedia 1951 Birthday Honours: 517426 Flight Sergeant Albert John Hammond. | Locality was wrongly set to "Gauteng" -- corrected 28 Aug 2026 (second pass, this time verified against Cemetery rather than AddInfo text, after the first AddInfo-based pass was found to be unreliable and reverted). This person's own Cemetery is unambiguously outside South Africa; several other people at the same cemetery already correctly show a blank Locality. Cleared rather than guessed at a specific region.
