Son of Mrs. L. Istain, of Middelburg, Cape Province
Cleared stolen ServiceNo 76695709KK (left on Iyambo F. PN 30794, Koevoet, 1983-03-03; this record is Istain, Cape Corps, 1978).
SADF Wall of Remembrance (Voortrekker Monument): named on photograph "1977 SAA (Kruger–Maquinda, Walker–Wilters) to 1978 SAA (Amorim–Cassamano, Hunter–Mandunga)". 1978 Army. Right column. 2nd name from the top (Istain F.).
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".
