4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "Rhodesia Army Pay Corps" (a branch, not a specific regiment) moved to Corps, per John's decision on the broader Regiment/Corps field-swap review.
6 Sep 2026: GraveRef was corrupted with the Mapai Puma 164 crash-site text ("Body not recovered - crash site coordinates are: S22 06' 48.2\" E31 39' 12.1\"") -- discovered while fixing that text's encoding on the genuine 17 Puma 164 casualties. This record's own DateDeath has nothing to do with that 6 Sep 1979 incident; the crash-site text does not belong here. Cleared rather than guessed -- the real GraveRef value is unknown. This record's own Cemetery/CemeteryLat/CemeteryLong were not affected and are unchanged.
16 Sep 2026, ServiceNo contamination sweep: the stored ServiceNo '724070' was CLEARED. It was not a reading of this man's record. PersonNumbers 38999 to 39001 -- 3 consecutive records -- all carried the identical number, which belongs to the record at the head of that run (38999, Brummer, Jan Jacobus Johannes (J J J)). A value repeated down an unbroken block of PersonNumbers is a forward-fill import artefact, not men who shared a service number; the pattern holds across 850 such runs on this roll and is independently confirmed by Mike Sandham's research log, which attaches such numbers to the head of the run 167 times against 6 contradictions (all examined). No replacement is guessed: this man's real service number is simply not known, and a blank field says so honestly where another man's number did not.
