Osman Nuri Bey then Pasha (Ottoman Turkish: عثمان نوری پاشا‎‎; 1832, Tokat, Ottoman Empire – 4 to 5 April 1900, Constantinople, Ottoman Empire), also known as Gazi Osman Pasha, was an Ottoman field marshal who commanded Ottoman forces during the Siege of Plevna in 1877.[1][2] Although unsuccessful in defending the city, he was awarded the title of Gazi ("warrior" or "veteran") for gallantry in holding the city for five months against superior Russo-Romanian forces. In addition to his Adjutancy title, Osman received the Order of the Medjidie and the Imtiyaz Medal for his services to the Empire.[3] He was made Marshal of the Palace by the Sultan and the Ottoman military anthem called Plevna March was composed for his achievements.[4] The Istanbul suburb of Taşlıtarla was renamed Gaziosmanpaşa in his honour.
