L/Cpl. Norman Rose
British Army 6th Btn. Green Howards
from:Leeds
(d.15th November 1944)
Norman Rose was my great uncle. He was wounded I believe in the area around Bemmel between Nijmegen and Arnhem. He later died of his wounds and is buried in Jonkerbos Commonwealth War Grave Cemetery.
The family story is that Norman and his brother John were crossing a bridge when there was an incident and Norman was wounded but John was OK. None of his surviving brothers would tell me how Norman was wounded and what happened after he was wounded. As yet, my research has not revealed the answer.
