    Deployed soldier receives doctorate

    Camp Arifjan, Kuwait-Master Sgt. Dennis King, 135th Expeditionary Sustainment Command's chaplain assistant from Birmingham, Ala., received his Doctor of Education from Walden University while deployed in Kuwait. This degree is the culmination of 5 years of work that overlapped another deployment to Afghanistan in 2009-2010. Dr. King successfully defended his dissertation via telephone from his office on Camp Arifjan. King is a 33 year veteran of the Alabama National Guard and a retired school principal from Pickens County. At home, he works as Anniston Army Depot's School Liaison Officer. King said, "I never would have completed this degree without the G.I. Bill and the help of a military friendly school like Walden." King uses his teaching skills in the Army as a trainer of the Army’s suicide prevention program. He has currently trained over 180 soldiers from 15 different units during this deployment.
