Keywords: My mother has lost the Army Book with his Unit and pictures of him while stationed on an Army Base I think in NC. He played Second Base.(All-star)
His nephew, Homer wall, who had a scrapbook of my dad' high school days as an outstanding baseball/basketball player around Shelby, NC during the 1930's ,passed away several years ago and I have not been able to locate anyone with any information concerning that scrapbook Someone from Shelby may have access to the newspaper clipping's from 1930's.
Daddy, a big Yankee fan, was known as a talented second base player. I was once told that he had a chance to play with them in the minor leag.
Also,I remember seeing pictures/articles in Homer's scrapbook from Shelby newspaper of him playing high school Basketball.
One had something about him turning down a scholarship at Duke for a chance with the Yankees. True?? I would like to know for sure.
(1941) He met my mother in Greenwood, SC while playing in a textile coached by Harley Heath, soon was drafted into the Army. I was born in 1942 After the war Daddy returned to Greenwood and played for several more years.
He would have turned 90 year this past November. He was known around Shelby by a nick-name -Simon He had 2 brothers Shay, Jay-1 sister Pauline.
His mother was Rada Beason Wall. I never remember meeting anyone from Beason side of his family His mother died in her 30's I think.
I would welcome hearing from anyone who knew my dad Howard Beason Wall or his mother. My dad was not one to talk about himself. He died so young and I have forgotten so much of what I did know.
We lived in Greenwood, South Carolina for most of mhis adult life. He died in the 1970's while living in Mauldin SC at the age of 54. My mother is still living but she too has lost most of their past.
Now that I have retired, I have the time to search for more of his past.
If you have information, I would appreciate hearing from you.

There was a couple of guys he talked about, friends, but can't remember their names. Also, a nurse, who took care of him when he was flown to the hospital for frostbite. He talked about how pretty she was. This is vague, maybe someone will remember his name. My fingers are crossed. Thanks so much, Pam, Daughter of Jerry Kubitz.

Service or Relationship: Family Member
Comments: Because I have no memorbilia from the time my father served in Korea, nor exact dates, unit, numbers, etc., I am just looking for barebones information that I can incorporate into our family tree and geneology information.
I know he was in the Army. I know he served for some period, but not the entire time.
I know he didn't go into battle.
Other than that, I don't have other information.
Can anyone at this site help me?
Thank you!
