SN CORRECTION 25 Aug 2026 (year-prefix method): ServiceNo 81030272BG cleared -- per the documented SA force-number convention (data/SA_SERVICE_NUMBER_NOTES.md), the prefix '81' implies registration circa 1981 (usually age 16), i.e. birth circa 1965. This record's own Age/DateDeath implies birth circa 1876, a mismatch; PersonNumber 33138 (Strauss, implied birth circa 1965) fits instead. Original value: "81030272BG".
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".
