Marion Gordon Robertson was born on March 22, 1930, in Lexington, into a prominent political family, the youngest of two sons. His parents were Absalom Willis Robertson, a conservative Democratic Senator, his wife Gladys Churchill, was a housewife and a musician, he met Adelia "Dede" Elmer, a fashion model and beauty queen in the Miss Ohio State contest, studying for her masters in Nursing at Yale University. She was a nursing student at Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, they were married on August 26, 1954. His family includes four children, among them Gordon P. Robertson and Tim Robertson and, as of mid-2016, 14 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren. At a young age, Robertson was nicknamed Pat by his six-year-old brother, Willis Robertson, Jr. who enjoyed patting him on the cheeks when he was a baby while saying "pat, pat". As he got older, Robertson thought, he considered "Marion" to be effeminate, "M. Gordon" to be affected, so he opted for his childhood nickname "Pat", his strong awareness for the importance of names in the creation of a public image showed itself again during his presidential run when he threatened to sue NBC news for calling him a "television evangelist", which became "televangelist", at a time when Jimmy Swaggart and Jim Bakker were objects of scandal.

When he was eleven, Robertson was enrolled in the preparatory McDonogh School outside Baltimore, Maryland. From 1940 until 1946 he attended The McCallie School in Chattanooga, where he graduated with honors, he gained admission to Washington and Lee University, where he received a B. A. in History, graduating magna cum laude. He joined Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Robertson has said, "Although I worked hard at my studies, my real major centered around lovely young ladies who attended the nearby girls schools."In 1948, the draft was reinstated and Robertson was given the option of joining the Marine Corps or being drafted into the Army. Robertson has described his military service as follows: "We did long, grueling marches to toughen the men, plus refresher training in firearms and bayonet combat." In the same year, he transferred to Korea, "I ended up at the headquarters command of the First Marine Division," says Robertson. "The Division was in combat in the hot and dusty bitterly cold portion of North Korea just above the 38th Parallel identified as the'Punchbowl' and'Heartbreak Ridge.'

For that service in the Korean War, the Marine Corps awarded me three battle stars for'action against the enemy.'"Parts of Robertson's description of his service were proven to be false. Former Republican Congressman Paul "Pete" McCloskey, Jr. who served with Robertson in Korea, wrote a public letter that said that Robertson was spared combat duty when his powerful father, a U. S. Senator, intervened on his behalf, that Robertson spent most of his time in an office in Japan. According to McCloskey, his time in the service was not in combat, but as the "liquor officer" responsible for keeping the officers' clubs supplied with alcohol. Robertson filed a $35 million libel suit against McCloskey in 1986, he dropped the case in 1988, before it paid McCloskey's court costs. According to a newspaper report from 1986, Robertson confirmed elements of McCloskey's allegations and said that he never saw front-l
