Robert A. Hall

Hall (April 15, 1946 – June 4, 2024[1]) was an American politician who served five terms in the Massachusetts State Senate.

He later rejoined the United States Marine Corps Reserve while in the Massachusetts Senate, serving from 1977 to 1983 as a radio operator and public information officer.

He finally left the Corps in 1983 as a staff sergeant due to time conflicts with his civilian profession after declining a commission as a second lieutenant.

Hall was re-elected in 1974 by a margin of 10,000 votes, carrying every city and town in the heavily Democratic district.

In 1976, he was nominated by both parties, winning the Democratic primary on write-in votes against a Leominster city councilor.
