EARLING, Iowa (AP) — Funeral services are scheduled for Saturday for an Army officer from Iowa who was killed in Iraq.

Lt. Col. Paul J. Finken, 40, died Nov. 2 when a bomb exploded near his vehicle in Baghdad. He was assigned to the 4th Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Ky.

A Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for 11 a.m. Saturday at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Earling. Burial will be in the church cemetery, according to an announcement from Pauley-Jones Funeral Home in Harlan.

Finken, an Earling native, was a 1989 graduate West Point. He entered the Army in May of that year and arrived at Fort Campbell in 2003.

He is survived by his wife, Jackie, and daughters Emilie, Caroline and Julia.
