Walker C. Robertson was born in 1919. He was the Radio Operator on C-87 Liberator Express #44-39203, based at Jorhat, India. His plane Crashed into a mountain between 3,000-4,000 feet elevation on September 24, 1944.

On November 4, 1944, a search party located the wreck in the hills on the Dafflaghur Tea Estate, about two miles from the village of Teipu, in North-East India. The impact of the Army transport into the mountainside caused a landslide which had partially covered what remained of the airplane. All four airmen aboard had been killed. No bodies could be identified, but dog tags were found at the burned out wreck scene.

PFC Robertson is now buried in the Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery, Lemay, St. Louis County, Missouri, USA in a common grave with his crew. He was one of over 2000 Americans who lost their lives defending China from their Japanese invaders from 1941-1945. He is commemorated on the The Monument to the Aviation Martyrs in the War of Resistance Against Japan in Nanjing, China.
