10 Sep 2026: ServiceNo 80821028SP cleared - four-way collision across distinct casualties 32155 Nando (1982-07-06), 32156 Nangolo (1984-01-11), 32157 Nangolo (1987-01-08), 32158 Nangula (1987-03-11). Left blank until a source assigns the number to one man. Mike Sandham / John decision.

10 Sep 2026: Cleared FirstName "Jorge" as forward-fill from Nambi 32154 (same streak that hit Nando 32155). Initials retained. Mike Sandham / John decision.
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".
