Research notes
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 ("61 Base Workshop") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
