FORT WAINWRIGHT, Alaska (AP) -- A memorial service for an Alaskan-based Tennessee soldier is set for Thursday afternoon.

The Army says Spc. Cody Lamb was found dead at his family's home while he was on a mid-tour leave.

Unicoi County Sheriff Kent Harris said last week foul play is not suspected and suicide has been ruled out.

Lamb was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 8th Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division at Fort Wainwright in Fairbanks.

Officials say the brigade was deployed to Iraq in September.

The artilleryman entered the Army in November 2006 and was assigned to Fort Wainwright four months later.
