==Early life==
Thomas H. Taylor was born 1934, in Kickapoo County, Kansas, the second son of Lydia Happer and Maxwell Davenport Taylor. Soon after his birth the family moved to Tokyo, where his father, a fluent Japanese linguist, was military attaché.〔''Swords and Plowshares'' by Maxwell D. Taylor〕 During World War II, while his father served in North Africa, Taylor and his siblings lived in Fort Bragg, NC, and Arlington, VA, where Mrs. Taylor worked for the Office of Price Administration (OPA) doling out gasoline ration cards. After attending high school in Berlin following the Berlin Blockade, Taylor returned to the U.S. He then matriculated to West Point from which he graduated in 1960.〔Honoring Our Marin Veterans, an oral history project in partnership with The Library of Congress Veteran History Project and Building Betters Citizens for America (BBCA), a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation〕 General Taylor once remarked about his son's undergraduate education: "He did something at the Academy that I could never do. He made the choir."〔New York Times, April 21, 1987.〕
