KINGSLEY (AP) - The funeral for an Iowa soldier killed in Iraq earlier this month will be held on Wednesday in his hometown of Kingsley.

Army Specialist Chad Groepper, 21, died during combat on Feb. 17. The military says he died as a result of wounds from small-arms fire in the Diyala province northeast of Baghdad.

Groepper enlisted in the Army after graduating in 2004 from Kingsley-Pierson High School. He leaves behind his wife and 4-month-old daughter.
