Research notes
Data correction 23 Aug 2026: Unit2 previously read "attd. 61 Mechanised Battalion Group", flagged by John Dovey as chronologically impossible since 61 Mechanised Battalion Group was not formed until 1978/1979, well after this person's death. Cross-checked against the 61 Mech Veterans Association official Roll of Honour (61mech.org.za/index.php/roll-of-honour) and found no matching entry on either roll tab. Value cleared as a data-entry error; primary Unit/UnitID left as recorded.
