In Memory Of
by Jillian Brinkley
Billy Beller joined the Air Force in 1965 after graduating from the Air Force Academy. He had planned to be a career officer and retire after 20 years or so. After completing his tour of duty in Vietnam, he and his family were stationed in Amsterdam, Holland for 2 years before coming back to the states. Billy loved to fly more than anything. His wife, Cynthia, always said that was the real love of his life. But we all knew his real loves were Cynthia and his two small children. While they were stationed in Tacoma, Wash., Billy suffered a massive coronary at the age of 31, leaving his family and friends devastated.

Wesley Benjamin Brinkley, Uncle Wes, enlisted in the Army on January 17, 1941, almost a year before the attack on Pearl Harbor. He served in the artillery for 7 months before joining the Army Air Corps. When he was commissioned as a 2nd Lt., he wrote home saying, “Am I happy!” He was waiting on his 1st Lt. Commission when he was killed in action. His last letter to his parents on Dec. 8th said how excited he was going to be to get that and it should be there any day now. He was shot down over Germany 5 days later on Dec. 13, 1943.
