I REMEMBER THE DAY
I served with Arnold and was there the day he was killed. We were escorting a convoy of trucks and Arnold stepped on the running board of one of them to give the driver a coke, an IED went off at the same time. I sent the photo of him on the tank.

Arnold and I were friends and classmates. We went to church together and went to church camp together. He overcame much in his short life. He knew how to live life to the fullest. He is missed.
