I looked up Leon D. Robinson, whom I wrote about yesterday. I was unable to find out where he was buried, but did come across two listings of him as one of the wounded in the U.S. Naval operations against Mexico at Vera Cruz in 1914.
The U.S. Navy Standard Publications listed him in "Names of Officers and Enlisted Men of the Navy and Marine Corps Killed or Wounded in Operations at Vera Cruz, Mexico, April 21, 22, 23, 1914."
LEON D. ROBINSON, seaman USS Vermont, right shoulder, will remove bullet; condition favorable. Home address: Sycamore, Illinois.
Another source mentions that he was transferred to the USS Solace, later to naval hospital, M.Y. Disposition-- on duty.
The USS Vermont (BB-20) was a battleship.
