After graduating, Dr. Beecher was a resident in surgery from 1932 to 1935, under Dr. Churchill at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Following his residency, Dr. Beecher traveled to Copenhagen to work closely with Professor Augustus Krogh, a Nobel laureate.

For his service, Dr. Beecher was honored with five battle stars and the Legion of Merit in 1945.".…
