ref. "Pride of Eagles" - History of the Rhodesian Air Force 1920 - 1980 by B Salt. ref. "Rhodesian Combined Forces Roll of Honour 1966-1981", by Adrian Haggett and Gerry van Tonder.
5 Sep 2026: Regiment/Unit swapped -- "7 Squadron (RSF)" (the specific squadron) moved to Regiment; "Rhodesian Air Force" (the force-wide designation) moved to Unit, per John's decision.
25 Sep 2026, Rhodesian squadron split: this record was moved from the combined entity "7 Squadron (RSF)" to "7 Squadron, Rhodesian Air Force". That entity held both the Rhodesian Air Force flying squadron and the Rhodesian Corps of Engineers squadron of the same number, which are unrelated units; it was created by a cleanup that split shared squadron names by Force alone, and Force does not separate two Rhodesian squadrons. This record is assigned on the evidence of its own Unit or Regiment column naming the Rhodesian Air Force outright, not on the squadron number.
