 About Tom Gill
Gill's father, an architect, moved to Hawaii in 1896, but unlike most members of his ethnicity and class, he sent his son to the Territorial public schools--Lincoln Elementary, Roosevelt High and the University of Hawaii--encouraging an independent social consciousness that has been one of the hallmarks of Gill's political life.
The Territorial newspapers first mention Tom Gill in 1945, when Tech Sgt. Gill, newly returned from the 24th Infantry campaigns in New Guinea and the Philippines (where he earned a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart), is quoted as remarking, "The doughboys don't get the same publicity as the fliers and some of the others.
Gill was first elected to office as Fifteenth District representative to the Thirtieth Territorial Legislature, and in 1959 was elected to the first State of Hawaii Legislature, where he served as majority floor leader.
