Winthrop Rockefeller
Winthrop Rockefeller (May 1, 1912 – February 22, 1973) was an American politician and philanthropist, who served as the first Republican Governor of Arkansas since Reconstruction. He was a third-generation member of the Rockefeller family.
==Early life==
Winthrop Aldrich Rockefeller was born in New York to philanthropists John Davison Rockefeller, Jr. (1874—1960) and Abigail Greene "Abby" Aldrich (1874—1948). He had one elder sister named Abby, three elder brothers John D. III, Nelson, and Laurance, and a younger brother named David. Nelson served as Governor of New York and Vice President of the United States.
Winthrop attended Yale University (1931–34) but was ejected as a result of misbehavior before earning his degree. Prior to attending Yale, he graduated from the Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, Connecticut.
In early 1941, he enlisted in the Army. As a soldier of the 77th Infantry Division, he fought in World War II, advancing from Private to Colonel. He earned a Bronze Star with Oak Leaf Clusters and a Purple Heart for his actions aboard the troopship USS ''Henrico'', after a kamikaze attack during the invasion of Okinawa. His image appears in the Infantry Officer Hall of Fame at Fort Benning, Georgia.
