PHOENIX Another soldier from Arizona has been killed in Iraq.
The Department of Defense announced Tuesday that Sgt. Kenneth J. Schall died Sunday after his vehicle was involved in an accident south of Baghdad.
Schall, 22, was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 70th Armor Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 1st Armored Division, based at Fort Riley, Kan.
Schall graduated from Centennial High School in Peoria, where he was a top golfer.
His mother, Terri Schall, said her son had a great sense of humor and also played baseball and basketball. He had recently taken up snowboarding and loved fishing.
It was very tough not to be touched by him in some way, she said.
Schall enrolled at Glendale Community College and was studying to become a history teacher when the Sept. 11, terrorist attacks occurred. The event spurred him to join the Army.
