HARRIS, Galley Boy, RONALD JAMES, S.S. Empire Osborne. Merchant Navy. 2nd March 1945. Age 16, 11 St. Teilo Ave. Barry, Glamorgan. Buried Ste Marie Cemetery.
While at Le Harve the young Galley Boy Ronald Harris died from a perforated appendix. He is buried ashore and recorded as non war dead, though his grave is attended and looked after by the CWGC. Both the Deaths at Sea Register and CWGC record Ronald as age 16, though his headstone was marked age 17.
