Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm has ordered that U.S. flags be flown at half-staff to honor a soldier from St. Joseph who died in Afghanistan on Nov. 19.

Flags are to be lowered for 25-year-old Army Sgt. Daniel Frazier on Monday, the same day as his funeral service in Niles.

He'll be buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

The Defense Department says Frazier and 36-year-old Staff Sgt. John Cleaver of Marysville, Wash., died of injuries from a suicide car-bomber attack on their unit.

Frazier was assigned to the 782nd Brigade Support Battalion, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, N.C.
