Contemporary history experiences of Kallie de Beer: Stories of my grandpa and- mother about the Anglo Boer War. The family link to the diamond related and seventh adventist church de Beers. Farms in the Free State's little towns and trips abroad. Research in contemporary history of South African diplomacy and the change of the former South African Army into a peacekeeping force in Africa and additional academic research in casu open distance e-learning.
I copied this very old map of Bern, Switzerland, from a framed sketch in a SA diplomat's home. The bear which also occurs in the De Beer coat-of-arms is clearly visible in the little black image (in the centre near the top) within the red shield.

Married to Christa. Three children. Johan(M), Christo(M) and Sanmariè(F).one daughter In Law, Henriette and one son In Law, Louwrens Schlebusch. As family man and proud grand father of five grand children, Reinhardt (m), Elrie (f)Kalista (f)Sanè (f) and Lourine...I strive to enhance a healthy southern African society. Also in my part time capacity as external assessor & moderator at the University of the Free State in Political Science related post graduates. Above all, I am sincerely interested in the De Beer family history, new uncovered facts about the Christian Bible, traveling and science.
