== Military Service ==
Born in New Haven, Connecticut, Benjamin King earned a Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Connecticut. In 1965, he was commissioned as a Field Artillery officer in the US Army and assigned to 1st Battalion, 81st Field Artillery Regiment (Pershing), which he recognized the Pershing missile’s similarity to the German V-2 rocket. Consequently he wrote a paper on the V-2 during the captains’ career course after his return from Vietnam, which he later turned into an article for the ‘’Field Artillery Journal’’ and later expanded into a book. After his assignment in Germany, he commanded both a 105mm artillery and headquarters battery in 2nd Battalion, 319th Field Artillery Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division during the Vietnam War from 1969 to 1970 where he was awarded the Air Medal, a Bronze Star Medal for valor and a Purple Heart Medal.〔Benjamin King, Pelican Publishing Company, http://www.pelicanpub.com/products.php?cat=319〕〔Victory Starts Here; A Short 35-Year History of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command, Create Space, https://www.createspace.com/3828638〕
