Comment:
Mr. Murphy was a hard working family man. He seemed to have a hear as big as all outdoors. A big heart for such a small statured man. He is still sending out messages to the younger generation if they will just take notice. He was a proud American that did what he did for his friends. We should all be so lucky to have a friend like him. He was taken too soon. ![]() Added: August 8, 2012

His bravery was recorded in a book I had when I was about9. there were many heroes. We need the inspiration of selfless people to inspire the future. I hope that USA and Texas ensure that the world remembers Americans like Audie and not he mad gunmen that murder. Please remember the thin red line was in the Crimean war, the Die Hards won their name in Spain and Eagle Squadron nearly had their US citizenship taken away from them. History shows us both the heroes and the fools we have to choose the future. Added: August 7, 2012

As a child in the Fifties, one of my heroes was Audie Murphy. My mum, Olive, used to take me to the movies and I loved his films. He always played the quiet, unassuming guy and that always impressed me. So, it was no surprise to me that when I visited Washington with my wife, Pat, in 1998, we paid a visit to Arlington Cemetery and came upon Audie's modest headstone in the midst of some pretty impressive memorials. Apologies for this, but I put my hand on Audie's headstone and said: "Hello, Audie, me and my mum, Olive Corten, loved you very much." It was such a thrill, and if I find myself in Washington again I will do the same thing. Added: August 5, 2012

In June of 1960, Audie L. Murphy came to Kitzingen, Germany to part in a movie for the "Return To The 3rd Division Than And Now". Myself and Merle Spicer of Cedar Rapids, Iowa as 536th Military Police, given the honor of Guarding and Protecting Audie while on the set...an old Air Landing strip Area. Further, we had the priviledge of a photograph which he said, "make it look like you're apprehending me". We lift him off the ground and the photo was shot. Tomorrow, August 4, 2012, I Syl am to present this photo to the Allegheny Kiski Valley Historical Society in Tarentum, PA...a great honor. I felt very close to Audie at that production.

Audie is my first cousin. I have fond memories of visiting him in Hollywood in the 50's when I was stationed in
California while in the army.
