Holzfeuer appeared to US customs early in 2000. His reason for visiting the United States was first given as: 'To escape the tyranny of a country that is held together by the backward ideals of the politcally selfish few who rule from behind an army like cowards and who would sooner incarcerate than allow a citizen to speak his or her own mind, which they would see as risking a tear in the fabric of their ruling stronghold that is only held together by mere threads'. After his first dealing with customs, Holzfeuer learned to reply that his reason for entering the US was simply: 'Business'.

Now, a resident of the United States and residing in California, Holzfeuer has begun a new movement, one unhindered by government and one he can pursue without feeling he's at risk. His physique may have dwindled and his body is not the prime specimen it once was (this he blames on the addictive daytime television programming America offers seven days a week), but the meaning is still as strong as ever. Arno now, Arno forever.

After a success recruitment process in the ripe musical climate of the San Francisco Bay Area, this latest incarnation of ArnoCorps is arguably the most powerful. Read about the current troops here.
