Research notes
SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026 (year-prefix method): ServiceNo 77334084BT cleared -- per the documented SA force-number convention (data/SA_SERVICE_NUMBER_NOTES.md), the prefix '77' implies registration circa 1977 (usually age 16), i.e. birth circa 1961. This record's own Age/DateDeath implies birth circa 1913, a mismatch; PersonNumber 31108 (Knoetze, implied birth circa 1962) fits instead. Original value: "77334084BT".
