Deangelo Barnell Snow was born in Saginaw, Michigan, and enlisted in the United States Army. He served as a Specialist with the 526th Brigade Support Battalion, part of the 2nd Brigade Combat Team based at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. His unit was deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, the U.S.-led military campaign in Afghanistan.

According to official records, Specialist Snow was killed on September 17, 2010, at Forward Operating Base Wilson in Afghanistan's Zabul province. The Department of Defense listed the cause as a hostile incident. No further operational details of the event were publicly released.

Snow was 22 years old at the time of his death. His passing was reported by several Michigan news outlets, which noted he was among service members from the state killed in the conflict. The 526th Brigade Support Battalion provided critical logistical support to combat operations in a volatile region.
