Research notes
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 ServiceNo 85352708BG against this record's 85352078. The two numbers differ by only 2 digit(s), so one is a transcription slip -- but nothing here says which, and this record is not part of any shared-number run. Not resolved. Flagged, not changed.
