26 Aug 2026: Corps from SAWGP Regiment South African Infantry Corps; Unit leftover "5 South African Infantry Battalion" â†' 121 South African Infantry Battalion (SAWGP Unit).
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "SA Army" cleared -- that's the service branch (Army, as distinct from Navy/Air Force), not a specific regiment; the actual unit ("121 South African Infantry Battalion") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
10 Sep 2026: ServiceNo 89737449 cleared - polluted shared value also on Makkusso 31521 / deleted 31522 (Mike Sandham 31/201 Bn pass).
Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), imported 16 Sep 2026, credited to The South Africa War Graves Project unless his entry says otherwise: filled ServiceNo -- each of these was EMPTY on this record and no existing value was changed. Derived fields recomputed inline where applicable.
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".
14 Oct 2026: FirstName "First Name Unknown" cleared -- a literal placeholder string, not a real name, treated as blank per John's instruction extending the Khaile (31046) fix. Initials left untouched, being a genuine value distinct from the placeholder.
14 Oct 2026: AGE-SHARING CLUSTER NOTED, NOT CLEARED. Age 27 shared with the immediately preceding record, Makhathini (31519) -- see note on 31519.
14 Oct 2026: CONFIRMED CONTAMINATION, CLEARED (not replaced -- no concurrent source gives a figure). Age 27 was shared identically with the immediately preceding record, Makhathini (31519) -- see note on 31519.
14 Oct 2026: SAWGP confirms Initials S T. Unit "121 South African Infantry Battalion" matches this record's own Regiment field value -- apparently transposed against SAWGP's convention, not restructured, flagged as an observation.
