THE WALL OF FACES

Billy now is my great uncle. I will always remember him as my Captain America. I can’t wait to meat him we get to Heaven

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your friend Jack Damron is touching. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever....

Billy and I were friends from our church and high school days. Trust this: He was a Dude of the first magnitude. When he came home on leave, he was wearing his newly earned green beret, spit shined jump boots and silver wings. That put me on a path that I followed for 11 years. He left his new Triumph TR-6 convertible in my care and he was off to RVN. I was in-country when he was killed but I didn't know the circumstances until years later. CSM Joe Dennison was with Billy when he died and he shared the details with me.. I was honored to make his Mom aware of the circumstances of his heroic and selfless death. 52 years later and I still remember him with deep respect and happy times together. De Oppresso Liber

My parents were good friends with the Baer family. When I was a boy they told me about Billy's story of heroism, being a green beret and staying behind to save people. I am 54 now and still remember his sacrifice and bravery. Still my hero. Rest in Peace

DEAR SERGEANT BAER,
