In October 1940 he was appointed adjutant in the guard battalion in the Auschwitz concentration camp and one year later with the rank of SS-Obersturmführer as the protective custody camp leader of the men's camp in the Ravensbrück concentration camp . During his time in Ravensbrück, initially 300 and in 1944 1,500 men from different nations were imprisoned who were penned in five barracks and had to do forced labor . He was subordinate to five SS block leaders and one SS labor service leader, as well as a network of prison functionaries . He himself was directly subordinate to the concentration camp commandant Ravensbrück and the latter to the concentration camp inspection in Oranienburg .

After his release he was sent to political custody in the Ludwigsburg camp in June 1946 .

The verdict was confirmed on June 14, 1949 by the “Central Appeals Chamber North Württemberg”. In January 1950, Beer was taken into custody again and charged before the Stuttgart Regional Court . On July 12, 1950, the court added multiple bodily harm in office , extortion of testimony by hanging on stakes or on the counts Whipping and other criminal offenses a sentence of 84 years, so that Beer was sentenced to a total sentence of 15 years in prison and the maximum sentence of ten years of loss of honor . The Stuttgart Higher Regional Court rejected Beer's appeal on January 19, 1951, again referring to Beer's particular inhumanity as a camp leader, as evidenced by witness statements. In a second trial for the murder of a prisoner in the subcamp at Gut Dahmshöhe in July 1943, Beer had to be acquitted by the Stuttgart Regional Court for lack of sufficient evidence. Beer was released again in 1955 and died in 1981. This Typed document from Auschwitz measures 140mm x 205mm
