- Huelet_Benner abstract "Sergeant Major Huelet Leo "Joe" Benner (1917 – 1999) was an American multi-discipline pistol shooter during what many consider the golden era of international and national competition (post-WWII through the mid-1960s). He was a member of three U.S. Olympic teams (1948, 1952, and 1956). At the 1949 World Championships at Buenos Aires, Argentina, he won the 25 meter Rapid Fire Pistol title. 1952 was particularly a banner year for Benner. In Oslo, Norway in July, he again won the World Championship in the 25 meter Rapid Fire match, setting a new world record in the process. Later that same month, he took Olympic Gold in the 50 metre pistol event (then known as Free Pistol) at Helsinki, Finland. This singular feat of marksmanship in two vastly differing events has been likened to a distance runner winning the 10,000 meter World Championship in record breaking fashion, and then taking the 100 meter Olympic Gold a fortnight later. At the 1954 World Championships in Caracas, Venezuela, he won the 50 meter Free Pistol title, and also took the silver in the 25 meter Rapid Fire Pistol event. He competed in two Pan American Games (1951 and 1955) winning the Rapid Fire Pistol event in 1951 and the Center Fire Pistol event in 1955. Overall, during his 11 years of international competition, Benner won 13 gold, 6 silver, and 6 bronze medals and set two individual and two team world records.On the national front, MSG Benner was virtually synonymous with Army marksmanship for over two decades. He earned the U.S. Army Distinguished Pistol Badge in 1940, and was retroactively awarded the United States Distinguished International Shooter Badge for his 1949 World Shooting Championships gold medal performance. MSG Benner was All-Army Pistol Champion an astounding 15 times, and NRA National Pistol Champion 6 times. He also served from 1953 to 1963 as the Pistol Coach at the U.S. Military Academy, West Point, New York.He is a member of the both the U.S. International Shooting Hall of Fame and the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit Hall of Fame.".
