🇺🇸 As we celebrate Veterans Day, learn about alumnus and veteran Tom Huhn’s lifelong service and Marquette spirit. #WeAreMarquette   🚁  Tom Huhn, Bus Ad ‘66, was drafted into the U.S. Army shortly after graduating from Marquette. He applied for flight school and soon found himself as a helicopter pilot dodging enemy bullets in Vietnam. He was shot down twice. “I should not be here today,” Huhn says. “There were too many bullets coming my way.”    💙💛 Huhn married his sweetheart, Lucy, in 1969 and raised eight children in Elm Grove, Wisconsin. He built a career in technology specializing in computer services before retiring. The Huhns have been men’s basketball season ticket holders for 55 years and established an endowed scholarship for students with financial need.    ✈️ In May, Huhn reconnected with memories of his Vietnam service by traveling to Washington, D.C., on the Stars and Stripes Honor Flight. On his return, over a thousand supporters at Mitchell International Airport gave the Vietnam vets a long-overdue welcome home. “This time, people were cheering for us,” Huhn says.
