Time hasn't stopped although you are gone from our lives, with each beat my hearts takes...I think of you!
Henry Beaumier was an outstanding soldier and patriot. He served his country honorably for 30 years, before retiring from the military, and another 20 as a firefighter. Henry loved this country, and he loved his family. People like this are what makes this country great.
He has been in the Marine Corps for 9 years and has been to Afghanistan and Iraq. He resides in Georgia with 2 sons. We are very proud of him!
I honor my Grandfather who served in the army in World War II, I am so proud of him and proud to be an American because of him. He was a man of few words, and was a hardened man, but it's even harder to imagine what it would have been like to walk in his shoes. He was a true New Englander, a hard worker and so resourceful and self-sustaining. He would and could provide for his humble family. What an amazing man! He carried on his shoulders, more weight, than most men can bear today. I'm proud to be his grand-daughter.
Entered Active Duty 19 Mar 1943, Honorable Discharge 30 Mar 1945 Battles and Campaigns, Naples Eoggia Rome Arno, North Apennines PO Valley.
Three times you went back to Nam ... most have forgotten but not me.
