Each Squid logs what requests it received, and from where it got the
response given to the user.

So yes, all Squids in the request path will contain log entries for the
request. Hoever, in each Squid you can easily determine from where this
Squid got the reply. In proxy(alpha) you can determine the response was
retreived from proxy(beta) and account in accordingly.
