Olivier , Gideon Otto (G O)

14 Sep 2026: Col (rt) Graham du Toit, Last Post: Air Mechanic Gideon Otto Olivier, School of Technical Training, died of a fractured skull in a private MVA in Pretoria, age 20. Matches this record exactly on date/cause/age. Rank conflict, not resolved: Graham "Air Mechanic" vs this record's "Apprentice". Not on Bushwar Books' same-day post.
16 Sep 2026, ServiceNo contamination sweep: the stored ServiceNo 'P/19313' was CLEARED. It was not a reading of this man's record. PersonNumbers 41695 to 41701 -- 7 consecutive records -- all carried the identical number, which belongs to the record at the head of that run (41695, Johnson, Charles Wilhelmus (C W)). 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.
