The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Technical Sergeant David N. Robinson, United States Army, for gallantry in action in connection with a military operation against an armed enemy while serving with Company I, 386th Infantry Regiment, 97th Infantry Division. On 10 April 1945, near Hulscheid, Germany, when his company’s advance was halted by intense artillery and small arms fire, Technical Sergeant Robinson, and another soldier, fearlessly moved forward to within 20 yards of an enemy 88-mm. gun position, killed one of the enemy and captured three. Upon returning the prisoners to his unit, Technical Sergeant Robinson learned that his comrade had been seriously wounded in the action. Unhesitatingly and without utter regard of his own safety, Technical Sergeant Robinson moved forward under heavy small arms fire and removed the wounded man to a place of safety. His gallantry on this occasion reflects great credit upon himself and the Armed Forces.
