Notes
On St. George's College War Memorial, Harare, Zimbabwe. ref. "Rhodesian Roll of Honour" by P. Geldenhuys (Roll compiled by Dr. J. R. T. Wood). Amendments from "Rhodesian Combined Forces Roll of Honour 1966-1981", by Adrian Haggett and Gerry van Tonder.
Research notes
SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026 (year-prefix method): ServiceNo 76147354HK cleared -- per the documented SA force-number convention (data/SA_SERVICE_NUMBER_NOTES.md), the prefix '76' implies registration circa 1976 (usually age 16), i.e. birth circa 1960. This record's own Age/DateDeath implies birth circa 1951, a mismatch; PersonNumber 39673 (Mutorwa, implied birth circa 1958) fits instead. Original value: "76147354HK".
