Two Iowa soldiers from Crawford County who died recently will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. 22-year-old Sergeant Casey Byers of Schleswig was killed last month when a bomb exploded beneath his armored Humvee while he was taking part in mission in Iraq. Byers’ brother, 19-year-old Specialist Justin “Paul” Byers died about a week and a half later when he was struck and killed by a pickup truck after walking out of a roadside ditch near Vail. The family has learned that the brothers will be buried next to each other in Arlington National Cemetery.
