  Staff Sgt. Floyd Henry Robinson - E6/ US ARMY- Born Friday January 28, 1949
• Company E, 1st Battalion, 8th Infantry, 4th Infantry Division, MOS-11B40
• On March 12, 1969 , Sgt. Robinson was serving as pointman for a 5-man reconnaissance team of a rifle company.
• The team was operating in Kontum Province, South Vietnam, about 10 miles West-Northwest of the city of DAK TO.
• During the mission the team became engaged in a heavy gun fire fight in the late afternoon. At that time, Robinson and two other team members were seperated from the team leader and his assistant.
• The 3 men began to escape and evade in a heavily congested area. They continued to evade until 1700 hours.
• On March 14, they had crossed a stream and had moved south where they were ambushed by a squad-sized element of communist soldiers.
• The 3 men returned fire and were able to break contact. Robinson proceeded north on a trail, while the other men sought to find cover in the thick brush.
• That was the last time Robinson was seen alive.
• The 2 other men continued to evade and were eventually returned to friendly forces.
• Company size operations were conducted in the area in which Robinson was last seen for 2 weeks after the loss without a sign of Robinson.
• He was classified Missing In Action!
