D-Day Admiral Robert O Beer: What Earned Him the Navy Silver Star Medal
First hand accounts of the D-Day invasion of Normandy, June 6th, 1944. Opening with sights and sounds of the Movie, The Longest Day (Original book by Cornelius Ryan), telling the story of the invasion as seen through the eyes of Petty Officer Merle "Jack" Caster, who was a spotter on board destroyer USS Carmick, DD-493. Carmick was one of the destroyers that bombarded the NAZI pill boxes on the cliffs of Omaha Beach. Omaha Beach was one of the four beaches which were invaded by allied forces attempting to take back France, then all of Europe, from the NAZI regime.
The then Commanding officer of USS Carmick was then Commander Robert O Beer. Commander Beer went on to be awarded the Silver Star Medal as a result of his and his crew's bravery that fateful morning. Officer Caster knew Commander Beer personally. He gave me permission to record this phone conversation that I had the honor of having with him, that you hear in this video.
This video gives you just a taste, first hand, of what took place that morning, and the courage of Carmick's officers and crew, and the officers and crews of all the enlisted Navy, who bravely risked life and limb bombarding the beaches of Normandy that morning. This video is dedicated to the memory of my father, Rear Admiral Robert O Beer, USN, Petty Officer Merle "Jack" Caster, USN, and in special honor of the sacrifices given by all the men who stormed the beaches that morning, that they may rest in peace, in the arms of our merciful and loving Almighty God.

Just a simple hunt for a Christmas tree in the forest (tag), snow falling at night, so peaceful. So quiet.
