Endecott Osgood was born in 1918, in Wisconsin. His father, Philips Endecott Osgood, was a respected author, and the younger Osgood followed in his father's intellectual footsteps, attending Andover College and graduating in 1938.
Osgood enlisted in the Marine Corps and attended OCS, earning his bars as a second lieutenant. He was given command of the first rifle platoon in Able Company, 24th Marines, in late 1942. He and his platoon shipped over to advanced training at Camp Pendleton, California, where Osgood was promoted to First Lieutenant.
Osgood led his rifle platoon during the battle of Namur. Unfortunately, he was not to keep command. Osgood was transferred, much against his will and the will of his fellow officers, to the headquarters company of the 24th Marines. He served in his new capacity until July 3, 1944, when he was wounded and evacuated from the island.
Osgood returned to Wisconsin, married, and had a family of his own. He died in 2007, in Waukesha WI.
I am not entirely sure where Endecott Osgood is buried, but believe it to be one of the following nearby cemeteries:
Mount Zion Cemetery, Waukesha, Wisconsin
Oak Hill Cemetery, Waukesha, Wisconsin
Pilgrims Rest Cemetery, Waukesha, Wisconsin
