1st KOSB Wounded List

Our original list came from WIG Wilson's History of the 1st KOSB in North West Europe and totalled 300 recorded as wounded. We have worked through that list and checked each and every entry - and made corrections where needed. We are still working our way through the 3,800 men listed as KOSB casualties in WW2 and adding new ones as we find them. *This means some of our Day-By-Day figures may need updating on occasion. Bear with us, please.
