Comments:

Warren Eastman Robinson was born on May 7, 1890 in Somerville, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. In 1910, Lieutenant Robinson became a member of Troop C, Massachusetts Cavalry. He served on the Mexican border during the summer of 1916, winning his commission as second lieutenant in that period. The Massachusetts Cavalry was later converted into a machine gun battalion, and as such went across to France in September, 1917. After some weeks of training the company went into the line about the first of February 1918. In the early summer Lieutenant Robinson attended a school of instruction for officers, and his promotion to the rank of first lieutenant soon followed. After the second battle of the Marne, in which he had been engaged at Chateau Thierry, he was cited in orders for marked gallantry. He died from his wounds received in battle on November 6, 1918 in Verdun, France and is now buried in Pine Grove Cemetery, Brunswick, Cumberland County, Maine, USA.
