  • Delete I cannot find any reliable sources that provide any detail on this unit. I would also draw editors' attention to WP:MILUNIT which provides some general guidance for the notability of military units. This one does not appear to meet the suggestion of "Land forces units that are capable of undertaking significant, or independent, military operations". My understanding is that it is a physical training unit. It could be covered in some detail in an article about the parent formation, which may have been a training establishment or directorate.

  • Comment This seems to be linked to Danie Craven, maybe some biographies of his life could be helpful sources. Park3r (talk) 02:02, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
