Comment:
I was just recently a Chaperone with my 14 year old daughter's Eighth grade class to Washington DC & New York. On our visit our tour leader Mr.Bob Deyo walked us through Arlington National Cemetary and it was during this tour that he pointed out the Hero Audie Murphy's burial plot and told our group about this Man's many accomplishments and what he did for our country. I being 53 years of age did not serve in the military,however my father John H Connell was a World War Two vet in the Army Air Corps and I had learned about Audie from my father,however it was great to pass this Hero's story on to my daughters generation. May God always watch over you Audie. Timothy T Connell (53) Stephanie R Connell (14) Added: May 24, 2014

I'm from the area of Texas where Audie Murphy was born. Sometime around 1955 or 1956 (?) my next door neighbor, a State Highway Patrol Officer, told me that Audie would be in town at the Patrol Office in the Grayson County Courthouse the following day to visit with one of his good friends who was head of the local Texas DPS division. At noon, when I got out from Jr. High for lunch break, I walked the three blocks to the Courthouse, went into the patrol office and there was Audie Murphy sitting behind a desk. I asked if I could talk to him and we had a nice little chat. My interest was mostly about my uncle, who had died in Germany in WWII. Audie told me that he and my uncle, Sgt. Alfred D. Carender, had been in the same unit. Thank you, Audie.
