Ajit Pai @AjitPai

For some reason, I thought of him recently and looked him up online. According to the @ParsonsSun, my hometown newspaper, Gordon Huggins passed away on August 1, 2012 @LabetteHealth (as it happens, where my parents used to work). He was 86 years old. https://t.co/oasfufiGcC 4/8 — PolitiTweet.org

In my mind's eye, Mr. Huggins was tall, and stood tall. He always had a jacket and tie on. He was kind. And he had a prosthetic hand. I'd never before seen a prosthetic hand up close. I was a kid, so I didn’t think about why he had it or how it affected his life and work. 3/8 — PolitiTweet.org

Then I found this website on @FindaGrave, which offers more details on his life—and in particular, his military service. Gordon Huggins served in the @USArmy during World War II, and earned a Distinguished Service Cross and the Purple Heart. https://t.co/XGdgFcZUos 5/8 — PolitiTweet.org
