SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026: ServiceNo 72249998PE cleared -- the pantser.cmvo.org.za SADF deaths PDF lists that number under "WIUM, COENRAAD JOHANNES" (PO, Sterf 18 02 82), matching PersonNumber 33893 (Wium, DateDeath 1982-02-18) by surname and exact date, not this record. Original value: "72249998PE". 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.
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "South African Army" cleared -- that's the service branch (Army, as distinct from Navy/Air Force), not a specific regiment; the actual unit ("Mess 12") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
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".

I have been searching for my 2 x grandfather, George Whitehouse, and I'm sure this must be him. I do hope so and as soon as I fid out any further information I'll continue his story.
