Becker was commissioned via the ROTC program at the University of California at Davis in 1986, graduating with a B.A. degree in political science. He also has an M.A. degree in political science from Auburn University, as well as a master's degree in National Security Policy and Studies from the United States Army War College.[7][8][better source needed]
He was relieved as commander of IMCOM and forced into retirement in August 2019 "due to a loss of trust and confidence in his ability to command". No reason was given for his relief. Though it was stated by Army spokespersons that the reason was not mission-related, lack of military response to complaints of poor conditions in privatized military residences was cited as a possible reason for his departure.[9][10][11]
