Research notes
26 Aug 2026: Unit leftover "South West Africa Police Counter-Insurgency Wing: Ops-K Division (KOEVOET)" → 30 Corps Maintenance Unit (SAWGP Regiment, no Unit).
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "30 Corps Maintenance Unit" cleared -- duplicated the Unit field verbatim; "Corps" here means an Army-formation-level Corps (grouping divisions), not a branch, and the info is already fully captured in Unit.
