Research notes

Cleared stolen ServiceNo 94752961 (belongs to Molose M.G. PN 31969, 116 SAI, 1998-06-22).
FirstName contamination fixed 31 Aug 2026 (systemic full-table scan): FirstName ("Maphakela George") was copied from the unrelated neighbouring record PersonNumber 31969 ("Molose, Maphakela George", initials M P) -- this record's own stored initials (N J) don't match "Maphakela George" at all. Confirmed by the existing 25 Aug 2026 SN CORRECTION note on this record, which already identified PersonNumber 31969 as the true owner of this record's copied ServiceNo via the same external source. Cleared back to unknown rather than guessed, AddInfo (also an exact copy from the same neighbour) cleared likewise.
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "SA Army" cleared -- that's the service branch (Army, as distinct from Navy/Air Force), not a specific regiment; the actual unit ("116 South African Infantry Battalion") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
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".
