    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[J. D. King served as a Lieutenant in the United States Army (28th Division) from 1942 to 1946. Interviewed by Elena Alterman on November 23, 2003, as part of the Lawrence Remembers: The World War II Years Project, King talked about his experiences during the Second World War. King was born on September 5, 1919. After being drafted into the Army, he went to basic training at Fort Ringgold, Texas. He then went to Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning, GA. King was a “Ninety-Day Wonder.” Following training, he became a second lieutenant in the Infantry. He was first sent to Hürtgen Forest, where he engaged in battle. The Germans captured King on the first day of the Battle of the Bulge. He spent roughly nine months at a prison camp, OFLAG XIII-B, in Hammelburg, Germany. Upon being released, he came back to America for medical care and was placed on non-active duty. He was discharged. King passed away on March 6, 2007.]]></dcterms:description>
