This photo of him was taken in England he was looking at the photos in a shop window when the owner came out and asked him if he would sit for a photo as they did not have one of a NZ soldier and they promised that they would send him a copy. They did indeed.

He was wounded and was placed with a family in England to recover they just happened to have a daughter who later came to NZ as a war bride. My grandmother sadly she died young and is buried at the Hokitika cemetery.

The date is wrong - this photo would have been taken circa 1918. Oswald fought in the First World War. He was in Blackball in the 1930s where his wife died in 1934
