THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. Your Distinguished Service Cross citation attests to your courage and devotion. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever.

The war may be forgotten but the warrior will always be remembered. All gave Some-Some gave All. Rest in peace Sky Soldier.

This 2019 will be 50 years since my father's passing.
I am Jack Blaine Beers Jr. named after my father and nicknamed Chip after him because of his chipped tooth he got as a boy. They called me Chip as in chip of the old block. The pride for my father is boundless. His name lives on through my son the 3rd and my grandson the 4th.

I submitted evidence about a year ago that showed Sergeant Beers should have been promoted to Master Sergeant - we've received word that he has been posthumously promoted to Master Sergeant retroactive to 07 April 1969.

I'm so proud of daddy. I miss him. I still get angry. This year Easter and KIA date a week apart. I've been on an emotional roller coaster.
