Police said Robert Watson, his wife, and their two young children were vacationing in Plymouth when they decided to visit the Cape Cod Inflatable Park in Yarmouth for the day. At the park, a man and his young son befriended the family from Jacksonville, North Carolina, and thanked Watson for his service, according to police.

When the Watsons returned from taking their children down a slide for a few minutes they found their belongings, including their wallets containing their cash, bank cards, and ID’s, were gone along with the man, police said. Robert Watson’s military and veterans’ affairs cards were also taken.

On Thursday, when the family arrived at the Yarmouth police station to help with the investigation, the department presented them with funds from the US Marine Corporal Nicholas G. Xiarhos Memorial Fund at Citizens Bank.  Yarmouth police are pitching in to help a disabled Marine veteran and his family after they were robbed while vacationing in the town on Wednesday.
