OSHKOSH, Wis. — A soldier who died at the local National Guard Armory passed away of apparent natural causes, police said Saturday.

There was nothing suspicious about the death Friday of Spc. Martin J. Berben, Oshkosh police sergeant Steve Kaiser said.

Kaiser declined to reveal details about how the 51-year-old Gillett man was found or what he was doing immediately before his death.

Berben had worked with a detachment of the 132nd brigade support battalion in Appleton, said Lt. Col. Tim Donovan of the Wisconsin Army National Guard.

Berben was most recently working full-time at a field maintenance shop in Oshkosh, Donovan said.

The soldier had deployed with the 2nd battalion of the 127th infantry in Kuwait and Iraq from 2005 to 2006, Donovan said.
