I learned about Audie Murphy as a little girl in a book I had called "Great American Heroes of the 20th Century". I am a school librarian now and I read the chapter on Audie Murphy to the kids. I tell them he was like a video game action hero except it was not a game. I am glad to see thie fine website that keeps his memory alive. Added: April 30, 2012

I loved Audie Murphy--He was raised in East, Tx with an uncle of mine--I am 68 yrs old & saw him when I was 11 yrs old in Lubbock at a rodeo & he put his arm around me & called me honey--He has always been one of my very favorite actors--I still watch his movies--he was a good looking man & a great cowboy-I was so saddened when he was killed--we lost a great actor, war hero & man-- Sincerely, Betty Minds Herndon Added: April 29, 2012

My father was a Marine, four battles in the Pacific and the last one Guam. Audie Murphy and my father were part of "The Great Generation". Is it that God doesn't build people like that any more or that adversity builds character. That generation had more than their share of adversity, the depresion and WWII. All of my life all of my friends were 20 to 30 years older than me. They seamed to have a code to follow in life. My problem now is all of my friends are dead. I watch Audie Murphy movies over and over. I see that spark of "The Great Generation" in him in every movie. He is a person I truely admire!

I just returned from Audie Murphy Days held in Greenville, Texas on April 20-21. It was wonderful.
Michael Dante who co-starred with Audie in two of his films, Arizona Raiders and Apache Rifles, spoke about Audie as an actor and a person.
Another speaker, R. V. Burgin, a WWII Marine who fought on New Britain, Peleliu, and Okinawa and author of Islands of the Damned spoke about his experiences.
There were great activities and wonderful people who came to honor Audie.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
