Gov. Neil Abercrombie ordered U.S. and state flags be flown at half-staff Saturday for Hawaii Army National Guard Sgt. Drew M. Scobie, who died in an aircraft crash Jan. 10 in Afghanistan.

Memorial services for Scobie were held Saturday at Hawaii Memorial Park Chapel on Windward Oahu. A "celebration of life" lunch was held later at Senator Fong’s Plantation & Gardens in Kahaluu.

The ashes of the 25-year-old Hawaii National Guard soldier will be scattered in an aloha oe ceremony and paddle-out at 10 a.m. Sunday at Makapuu Beach Park.

"The people of Hawaii are thinking of Drew, who volunteered to deploy to Afghanistan last year as a testament to his convictions," Abercrombie said in a statement. "We extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to his family and friends as we mourn the loss of a brave and selfless man."

Scobie, 25, of Kailua, attended Kalaheo High School and worked at Straub Clinic and Hospital. He was killed along with a Wyoming soldier and a civilian in the crash of a twin-engine turboprop reconnaissance aircraft flying a night mission in Afghanistan on Jan. 10.

Scobie, of Kailua, was assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Battery, 1st Battalion, 487th Field Artillery, in Wahiawa, as a fire direction officer.

Scobie’s wife, McKenna A.K. Panui-Scobie, is expecting their second child in June. Their son is 4.
