  2. When I first met Spc. Caldwell I had to talk to and tell him to calm down, this aint Showtime at the Apollo. He was always singing and dancing. He said, Ok Sarge I can’t help it, Im talented. I smiled and shook my head. He was a pleasure to lead and work with in Afghanistan. My sincerest condolences to all family, friends, and Soldiers.
    Salute Soldier.

  7. Caldwell was and will forever be a great person. The only person to walk around Afghanistan singing, dancing, and flipping with a weapon and a laptop in his hand. Rest well brother!!!

  8. CPT Wright in all my days as a commander SPC Caldwell never failed to make me smile. He’d always check on me and ask me if I was okay. I can’t say how much he will be missed.

He was always the most interesting person in the room and kept a smile upon multiple soldiers face. His bright smile and high energy will most definitely be missed. Rest easy my brother in Arms
