WHO WAS SAM BROWN
The Original Sam was Real Scrapper
in the British Army.

Thousands of American enlisted men
IN France who did not have to wear
one, in France to look like an officer. |
and many American officers over
there who were glad to buckle one
around the shoulders to distinguish
them from some enlisted men, have
possibly thought ne was some great
leather magnate overloaded with war
orders.
according to The Home Sector. the
ex-soldier = magazine conducted by the
former editorial council of The Stars
and Stripes, the original Sam Browne
was a most gallant English officer and
gentleman who won the Victoria Cross
fighting for merry England in India
during the autumn of 1858.
Lord Roberts, field marshal and
advocate of preparedness in England,
who was friend of the dashing
cavalry, officer gives this account of
the dead hero who received so much
publicity in the late war because he
was carless enough TO have his arm cut
off and therefore forced to devise some
| means whereby he could be present at
parade without his trlsty saber drag
ging on the ground: "'This popular and
| gallant officer, we'll known to every
| native in upper India as sam Brun
| Sahib and to the officers of the whole
of the Maiestv's army as the inventor
of the sword belt universally adopted
on service, distinguished himself great
! " in the autumn of 1858. With go
| sabres of his own regiment and $50
native infantry he attacked party OF
rebels who had taken up a position at
| Nuria, village at the edge of the
Tarai, about ten miles from Philibhit.
| Browne managed to get to the rear of
the enemy without being discovered.
"A hand to-hand fight then ensued,
in which he got two severe wounds, one
on the knee, from which he nearly blcd
to death, the other on the left shoulder,
cutting right through the arm. The
enemy were completely routed, and fed
leaving their four guns and 800 dead
on the ground. Browne was deserved
" rewarded with the Victoria Cross.
Sam Browne died at The Wood Ryde
Isle of Wight on March il, 1901, and
after cremation was buried there. 4
