RSM. Ernest Thomas "Ossie" Osborne

British Army North Staffordshire Regiment

from:Tamworth

Regimental Sergeant Major Ernest Osborn was shot in 1944 at Bone Harbour, Middle East by an American drunken soldier 18 times with a machine gun in hip stomach and leg. My father actually disarmed the Yank then collapsed into a coma for 2 weeks and on critical list for 6 weeks till shipped back to Rowhampton Hospital in the UK spending many months in traction in bed. His leg was amputated 4 yrs later after complications but he remained a very fit man who worked very hard manualy for next 25 years till he retired. Any info about my father would be gratefully appreciated.
