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 Corps -- each of these was EMPTY on this record and no existing value was changed. Derived fields recomputed inline where applicable.
13 Oct 2026: NAME CONFLICT, NOT CHANGED. This record (Mawela, Livhinwane Dickson, Sergeant, ServiceNo 1904794, Venda Defence Force 2nd Battalion (Maunavhathu), died from medical reasons in Eshilidzini Hospital on sick leave, 13 Oct 1994, age 26) matches Col (rt) Graham du Toit Last Post, 13 Oct 2026, exactly on service number, rank, regiment, unit, date, age and cause of death -- but Graham names the man "Sergeant Gideon Johannes Smith", not "Livhinwane Dickson Mawela". No basis to infer which name is correct; flagged for review rather than changed. Not to be confused with the unrelated Gideon Johannes Smith named in the same Graham post (Rifleman, 6 SAI, died 1992 -- new record, PersonNumber 49884).
