Research notes


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".
16 Oct 2026: ServiceNo suffix filled to "74466806BC" (was "74466806") per Col (rt) Graham du Toit Last Post, 16 Oct 2026.
