HISTORY
Arch Asher was the loader of the so-called "Haunted Tank" that was guarded by the spirit of the legendary General J.E.B. Stuart during World War II. In 1943, however, Arch's luck ran out as he was killed by an exploding German tank. He was replaced in the crew by Gus Gray. (Arch seemingly appeared in recent years alongside his old crew and the Demon Etrigan fighting Nazi Demons. This may have been the works of a supernatural power or a time anomaly.)
