Yes, but Harry served in the RAF. Quite a different story with him!

There appears to have been another George - George Henry Oram from Thornaby.  Might this person who was killed in 1915 be connected to you?  See photo in top link.

No, this George Henry Oram isn't one of mine but thanks for the tip. Always good to re-visit!

There are only 2 Oram families in the Hartlepool area in my time frame, clearly not related as there was a newspaper article at one point stating the fact! The families didn't want to be associated with each other!
