Husband of Mrs. H. Morrow. Father of Candice Clare Johnson, now of Perth, Western Australia. Morrow was from Malvern, Kwazulu Natal.
26 Aug 2026: Unit leftover "Rand Light Infantry" → Regiment (SAWGP Regiment, no Unit).
John Dovey, 1 Sep 2026 (Durban Light Infantry Chapel memorial panel review): Regiment/Unit corrected -- the chapel's SWA/Angola plaque marks this person "(RPN)", i.e. Regiment Port Natal, which was amalgamated into the Durban Light Infantry. Regiment set to Durban Light Infantry, Unit set to Regiment Port Natal.
14 Sep 2026: Pro Patria Medal added -- database-wide sweep for SADF Border War operational-area deaths within the medal's gazetted window (25 Jun 1976 - 27 Apr 2003), per the warrant's died-before-qualifying-period provision. See PersonAward.Citation for the gazette references.
14 Sep 2026: Pro Patria Medal added earlier today REVERTED -- John obtained the actual Government Gazette (GG 5171/5575); the "died before completing the qualifying period" provision relied on does not exist in the primary text (it was a secondary-source claim). Actual Rule 5 requires (a) combat/enemy-caused incident, (b) a Ministerially-acknowledged operation (clasp), or (c) 55+ continuous/90+ non-continuous days in an operational area -- none of which this record's cause of death clearly demonstrates.
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".
