Research notes

SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 74542200BT cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "THERON, PETRUS JOHANNES" (RFN, Sterf 08 05 85), matching PersonNumber 33254 (Theron, DateDeath 1985-05-08) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "74542200BT". 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. | Colyn Brookes, Mibisa: Volume One – Western Cape (Lulu, 2013, ISBN 9781447682523): Cape Town, Plumstead Cemetery, Victoria.
5 Sep 2026: Unit "7 Squadron" (a squadron, SAAF's regiment-equivalent) promoted to Regiment, per John's decision. Corps (South African Air Force) unchanged.
