Research notes
SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 63097208E cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "MARSHALL, LESLIE JOHN" (CAPT, Sterf 02 02 73), matching PersonNumber 31635 (Marshall, DateDeath 1973-02-02) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "63097208E". 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.
