Robert Wallace Stuber was born on August 28, 1920 in Saint Joseph, Missouri. He served in the Berlin Airlift as a First Lieutenant and pilot of the C-47 #43-49534.

On July 25, 1948, 1LT Stuber and 1LT King were piloting a C-47B from Wiesbaden-Erbenheim Airfield to Berlin-Tempelhof Airport as part of the Berlin Airlift effort to resupply the City of Berlin. On approach to Tempelhof, the aircraft struck the top of a building and crashed into the street in front of an apartment building at Handjery-Strasse 2, Berlin-Friedenau. Both men were killed. 1LT Stuber is buried now in the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, San Diego, San Diego County, California, USA.
