Mike Sandham 21 Aug 2026 omissions: 640229 Junior Inspector Henry Thomas McDonald, South African European Auxiliary Services, died of natural causes at Voortrekkerhoogte Military Hospital, age 65. SAWGP details.php?id=42180 (grave Thaba Tshwane Old No.1 B19; husband of Mrs C. F. McDonald, Newlands, Johannesburg). Graham 21 Aug said 1 Military Hospital / heart attack — 1 Mil as a named hospital opened 1972; hospital set to Voortrekkerhoogte (SAWGP/Mike); heart attack left as Graham's more specific cause under natural causes. Regiment was SA Army — set to South African European Auxiliary Services.
25 Sep 2026, Unit2 service-branch sweep: the stored Secondary Unit "Army" was CLEARED as a duplicate. It was not a sub-unit, it was a service-branch word repeating what the Branch column already says. Secondary Unit is for sub-units -- a company, a squadron, a commando -- and this record's branch of service is unchanged at "Army".
