Our Neighbors in the Services
Spencer, Iowa – Mr. and Mrs. August Arndt of Dickens have received word through the Red Cross that their son, Private LeRoy Arndt, 25, is a prisoner of the Germans. He was reported by the government as missing after a battle in Tunisia February 17. Young Arndt went into the service two years ago this April through the selective service. He was trained at Camp Claiborne and a year ago this April spent a 15-day furlough at home before sailing for Ireland from where he went to Africa.
