Oosthuizen , Boeta (B)

SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 76301712BG cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "OOSTHUIZEN, ALBERTUS JOHANNES" (RFN, Sterf 29 04 80), matching PersonNumber 32384 (Oosthuizen, DateDeath 1980-04-29) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "76301712BG". 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.
5 Sep 2026: Unit "42 Squadron" (a squadron, SAAF's regiment-equivalent) promoted to Regiment, per John's decision. Corps (South African Air Force) unchanged.
Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), imported 16 Sep 2026, credited to The South Africa War Graves Project unless his entry says otherwise: filled Rank, RankID -- each of these was EMPTY on this record and no existing value was changed. Derived fields recomputed inline where applicable.
25 Sep 2026, Unit2 service-branch sweep: the stored Secondary Unit "Navy" was CLEARED. It was not a sub-unit, it was a service-branch word, and it CONTRADICTED this record's own Branch, "Air Force". Across the roll 787 records carried such a contradiction; judged against Corps and Regiment -- independent of both columns -- the evidence backed Branch 744 times and Unit2 not once. Branch is therefore kept and the contradicting word removed. Nothing is guessed: this man's branch of service is already recorded, and his sub-unit, if any, is simply not known.
