Bahlmann , Bernard Wilhelm (B W)

Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), row Sheet3:5156, imported 16 Sep 2026. Credited to The South Africa War Graves Project (southafricawargraves.org) unless his entry says otherwise. NEW ROH record -- no match on the roll by service number, by surname with date, or on a widened surname-plus-year check. Mike's entry verbatim:
"22 Sep 1966: 05080221E Warrant Officer Class I Bernard Wilhelm Bahlmann from 1 Air Depot, South African Air Force Died of leukemia, at 1 Mil Hospital. He was 53."
21 Sep 2026: CauseDeath trimmed to the circumstance of death alone. On import it had been set to Mike Sandham's entire entry, repeating the date, service number, rank, name and unit that this record already holds in its own fields. His wording is quoted verbatim in the citation above, so nothing is lost. Defect found when Graham du Toit's Last Post of 21 Sep 2026 independently confirmed one of these records, Sikirila 49773.
Col (rt) Graham du Toit Last Post 22 Sep 2026: "05080221E Warrant Officer Class I Bernard Wilhelm Bahlmann from 1 Air Depot died of leukaemia in 1 Military Hospital. He was 53." INDEPENDENT CONFIRMATION of this record, created on 16 Sep 2026 from Mike Sandham's "List 1" research log and until now resting on that single source. Service number, forenames, rank, unit, date, cause and age all agree exactly.
