==Biography==
===Pre-Series===
Beck at some point at signed up for the Luftwaffe before or during World War II. Beck flew a Messerschmitt Bf 109, Germany's most produced fighter in the war. 
At one point during the war, Beck encountered a heavily damaged P-51 Mustang flown by American pilot Jackson Gibbs. While the P-51 Mustang could out-dogfight a Bf-109, in Gibbs' state, he was helpless. Instead of shooting him down, Beck recognized Gibbs as a fellow pilot in need and helped guide him back to an Allied friendly base. Gibbs and Beck saluted each other before the German pilot broke off and headed back to base.
===NCIS Season 11===
In 2013, Beck was in an American hospital and dying. Jackson Gibbs visited Beck to reconnect with him before his time was up. When Beck awoke to see Jack standing there, he was delighted to see him. Gibbs introduced Beck to his son, NCIS Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs. Gibbs said that because Beck saved his life, Leroy Jethro Gibbs was born and was able to help people and solve crime. This helped Beck alleviate his guilt from serving the Nazis who ravaged Europe.
==Personality==
Beck fought for Germany, more than likely out of simple youthful patriotism for his homeland as he didn't believe in Nazism or Adolf Hitler's desires for world domination.
