5 Sep 2026: Regiment/Unit swapped -- "3 Squadron (RSF)" (the specific squadron) moved to Regiment; "Rhodesian Air Force" (the force-wide designation) moved to Unit, per John's decision.
Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), imported 16 Sep 2026, credited to The South Africa War Graves Project unless his entry says otherwise: gives Age 32 against this record's 33 (a difference of one year, so most likely a birthday-not-yet-reached transcription difference rather than a real disagreement). This record has no date of birth, so there is nothing to adjudicate with. Flagged, not changed.
