Joshua Harton

A U.S. Army specialist from Bethlehem was killed September 18, 2010, in an ambush in Afghanistan. 


Joshua Harton, age 23, was the 50-caliber rear gunner in his platoon. Joshua Harton's platoon was on its way back from patrol and was ambushed. He had served a tour in Iraq and was most recently stationed at Forward Operating Base Griffin in Afghanistan. His mother stated "He had the real dry humor. He'd do a sideways joke and you'd catch up on the punch line like 2 minutes later type thing. He was just a cool kid." 


Let us pray to God the Father, Jesus, all of the saints and all of the angels that Joshua Harton is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen
