∙ 10y agoWatson was wounded in the Battle of Maiwand on 27 July 1880. In 'A Study in Scarlet' it was his shoulder, in 'The Sign of Four' it was his leg, but in 'The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor' Watson curiously writes that the bullet was 'in one of my limbs.' I guess we may never know the true answer in the first instance.
Then, much later in 'The Adventure of the Three Garridebs,' Watson writes the following passage. "In an instant he ['Killer' Evans] had whisked out a revolver from his breast and had fired two shots. I felt a sudden hot sear as if a red-hot iron had been pressed to my thigh."
