California’s War Dead

    Military deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan, 2001-Present

    Daniel Ronald Scheile, 37
    He really took care of his soldiers, and not just on a military level. He always made sure your gear and everything was just right, to make sure you were safe. He got to know every guy on his squad. He'd check and see if everything was OK with your family, sit and talk about your problems. He was always willing to teach somebody what he knew, and he knew a lot.
    —Thomas Feemster, former National Guardsman
