An Open Letter to President Biden

Dear President Biden,

On October 12, you stated at Camp Hale that your son Beau "lost his life in Iraq".


Sir, Beau served honorably in Iraq. But he did not lose his life there.

My son did along with over 4000 other patriots.

In the almost two weeks since these erroneous words came out of your mouth, not you nor anyone in your administration has taken the time to correct this.

President Biden, you are either addled or a liar.

You have embarrassed your family. You have besmirched the reputation of Beau. You have spit in the faces of Gold Star families across this country of which you are Commander in Chief.

A simple apology and explanation would suffice.

Over 4000 families will be waiting as well as the one million brave men and women who wear the Cloth of our Nation.


Sincerely,

Alan Burks
Gold Star Father
