Hidden in plain sight in Downtown Killeen 🇺🇸

The James H. “Screwdriver” Arnold Military Plaza honors a Killeen native, World War II veteran and longtime community leader.

Arnold served with the 36th Infantry Division during WWII and was awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart. After returning home, he continued serving Killeen through civic leadership, including the City Council, Chamber of Commerce and Volunteer Fire Department.

Today, the plaza features an M47 Patton tank and Cobra attack helicopter, a small but striking reminder of Killeen’s deep military history.
