Newt Hamill Hall (January 2, 1873 – May 24, 1939) was an American officer who served in the United States Marine Corps during the Boxer Rebellion.
He was brought up on charges regarding his leadership activities during the Boxer Rebellion, where he and his men had to defend the walls of the Legation.
He was exonerated by an official naval court of inquiry, which he himself requested, so as to not impede his career advancement in later years.
The British Minister had initiated a charge of possible "cowardice under fire," but no concrete evidence had surfaced from any witnesses.
Under his direct command, one Legation wall defense area was lost, but later retaken.
