9Feb09 - As reported by the U.S. Naval Academy:
Arlington F. Campbell, 69, a retired Navy rear admiral who commanded submarine forces around the
world and directed naval telecommunications units, died Jan. 27 of mesothelioma at National Naval
Medical Center in Bethesda. He lived in Springfield.
Adm. Campbell spent 33 years on active duty after graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis
in 1961.
He served on four submarines before taking command of the Richard B. Russell, an attack submarine, and
in 1981 was named the first commanding officer of the Ohio, a nuclear-powered Trident-class submarine
armed with ballistic missiles.
He later commanded submarine squadrons and groups along the East Coast.
In addition, Adm. Campbell was part of the staff of Adm. Hyman G. Rickover, working on developing
nuclear reactors for submarines in Northern Virginia. He also led the Navy's worldwide
telecommunications command and was vice director of the Defense Information Systems Command,

Arlington Fichtner Campbell was born in Steubenville, Ohio, and grew up in Weirton, W.Va. He received a
master's degree in naval management, personnel and financial from the Naval Postgraduate School in
Monterey, Calif., in 1970.
Adm. Campbell was a vice president of Decision Systems Technology, an information technology firm in
Rockville, for about two years after his retirement from the Navy.
He was a longtime member of the executive board of the Naval Academy's Class of 1961 alumni group and
was president for five years. He also served on the board of directors of the Dolphin Scholarship
Foundation, which benefits the families of naval officers and sailors assigned to submarines.
He was a member of Community of Faith Tabernacle Church in Springfield and was on the board of Teams
for Medical Missions, an organization that provides humanitarian aid to Jamaica.
A daughter, Courtney Lynn Campbell, died in 1964.
