Colin King

Colin King

Colin King graduated from Sandhurst in 1981 and served for 14 years in the British Army. Most of his career was in Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD), with operational service including the Falklands, the Persian Gulf and Bosnia. He also led the first British Army team to train Afghan deminers during the UN Operation Salam. In addition to field work, he was an instructor at the British EOD school and spent six years working as the sole EOD analyst on foreign munitions for the Ministry of Defence. He left the army after serving as a Squadron Commander with the Gurkhas in Hong Kong, and founded a consultancy company specialising in the technical aspects of EOD. He now edits the IHS/Jane’s reference yearbooks Mines and Mine Clearance and Explosive Ordnance Disposal. Operational work, training and national programme assessments have led to experience in a wide range of countries, including Azerbaijan, Bosnia, Cambodia, Chad, Chile, Ecuador, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Lebanon, Moldova, Oman, Rwanda and Yemen. He was a technical advisor to the recent Oslo Process which led to the Convention on Cluster munitions, and is currently engaged on a number of programs related to the disposal of landmines and cluster munitions.
