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".
Database-wide FirstName/Age contamination sweep (extension), 28 Sep 2026: FirstName 'Kholeka Maria Mavis' and Age 20 were forward-filled from PersonNumber 31957 down a contiguous run of 2 records -- this record's own LastName ('Mofokeng'), Initials ('A M'), ServiceNo ('94880549') and DateDeath ('1997-10-15') are all genuinely distinct, confirming a different real person whose FirstName/Age were simply never captured. Unlike the first pass of this sweep, Unit is NOT touched here -- it is not part of this contamination (see the Unit-restoration correction on the related run) and this record's own Unit ('') is left exactly as found. FirstName and Age CLEARED; no replacement guessed.
15 Oct 2026: Age filled to 26 (was blank since the 28 Sep 2026 contamination clearing, when no source had a figure). Col (rt) Graham du Toit Last Post, 15 Oct 2026, now gives age 26 for this person -- applied per the standing policy of applying a same-day source's stated figure once cleared. EstBirthYear recomputed (1997-26=1971, replacing a stale 1977 left over from before the clearing).
