BiographyBorn in 1844 in New Orleans, Louisiana, Osborne joined the Navy from that state. By August 21, 1876, he was serving as a seaman on the {{USS|Juniata|1862|6}}. On that day, while Juniata was at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he rescued a young shipmate from drowning. For this action, he was awarded the Medal of Honor three days later, on August 24. Osborne's official Medal of Honor citation reads: Serving on board the U.S.S. Juniata, Osborne displayed gallant conduct in rescuing from drowning an enlisted boy of that vessel, at Philadelphia, Pa., 21 August 1876. Osborne left the Navy while still at the rank of seaman. He died on April 23, 1920, at age 75 or 76 and was buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington County, Virginia.[3] See also{{Portal|Biography|United States Navy}}
