I remember watching "To Hell and Back" as a young boy and loving it, not because it was a great movie but more because of the story. What a very special man. My dad was a WWII vet. He served in the European theatre in North Africa and Italy. He was in the artillery. I believe my day and any man or woman that serves our country is special and if they've served in times of war or conflict they deserve our lifelong appreciation. I will always remember my dad and appreciate Mr. Murphy for what they I'd for us. Added: January 20, 2013

My father served with the 7th Inf Reg. in World War II. He made the Fedala landing in 1942 and survived the War. He spoke of fighting over much of the same ground as did Audie. My father retired from the USAF as a M/Sgt in 1966, in San Antonio, Texas. I have been researching awards my father may of had, during the war, and Maj Murphy's awards have helped to recognize the order of presidence. My efforts have been hampered by the Archives fire that occurred in the 1970's. I don't know if they ever actually met, but the stories of the most decorated soldier of World War II have been a large part of my life. My father met my mother in Saltzburg, Austria in the cloing days of the war. He had enough points to go home almost immediately, being discharged in New York on the 15th of July, 1945. He reenlisted in the Air Force and returned to Germany on an Air Force unassigned tour in 1947. I believe that my father was assigned to 2nd Battalion, 7th Infantry and they fought across many of the same places as did 1st Battalion 15 Infantry. Dad was a S/Sgt at the end of the War.

To me Lt. Murphy is an example of the mysterious unique character that can surface under dire conditions of war. It is my hope that such individuals will always be looked upon as the rare gems they are. Whatever the amalgem of emotions that drives men to such feats of valor we will never know...combat units get very few such men. Let us be forever thankful they ever exsisted at all. My father fought during WWII with the 7th Armored Div., Co B, 48th Armored Infantry as a S/Sgt. I was spoon fed that war as as a child. He was extremely proud of helping to defeat Nazi Germany as a pure form of hate and a criminal regime. Lt. Murphy will always be an inspiration to me. Hopefully his memory will never die but go on to inspire our nation youth forever.
