Show Serviceman Participates In Tests in Alaska Pfc. Roger J. Robinson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer K. Robinson, Ro-binson, Route 1, Springville, recently participated with the 9th Infantry in week-long combat com-bat proficiency tests conducted near Fairbanks, Alaska. The tests, conducted on the rugged snow-covered Alaskan terrain, were designed to determine deter-mine unit effectiveness under realistic combat conditions. Robinson, a rocket launcher gunner in the Infantry's Company Com-pany B at Eielson Air Force Base, entered the Army in January 1959 and completed basic combat training at Fort Jackson, S. C. The 18-year-old soldier is a 1958 graduate of Springville High School. |
