I'd encourage you all to take the time to view this article about a Marine who has had to deliver "The News" for a year. Frankly, I haven't been able to read it all the way through yet myself, but I will. Needless to say, I think this is a very powerful article about Marines.

Major Beck is a wonderful CACO. He always goes the extra mile and is much loved by the families he serves. He's been doing this for quite a while. Sometimes I wonder how much longer he can continue. He is in my prayers regularly.

There are photos of Maj. Beck with LCpl. Chad B. Maynard's family in June '05 at the tribute site Chad's brother Sgt. Jacob Maynard developed:
