A FEW YEARS AGO I HAD THE HONOR AND PRIVILEGE TO VISIT ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY. THERE, LIKE MOST PERSONS I PAID MY RESPECTS TO PRESIDENT KENNEDY, ROBERT KENNEDY AND AUDEY L. MURPHY. AS WE ALL KNOW, PRESIDENT KENNEDY HAS AN ETERNAL FLAME AND THE AREA IS LARGE IN NATURE. ROBERT KENNEDY'S IS JUST A SIMPLE WHITE CROSS, JUST A FEW STEPS AWAY. BEHIND THE TUMB OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER AND AMPHATHERATRE, ACROSS THE STREET I LOCATED MAJOR MURPHY'S MARKER. I WAS TAKEN ABACK BY THE SIMPLICITY OF THE SURROUNDINGS FOR SUCH A GREAT HERO, BUT THEN I RECALLED THAT THESE WERE HIS WISHES. I'M IN MY 64TH YEAR AND COUNT MY LIFE LONG HERO'S ON ONE HAND, MAJOR MURPHY IS #1 ON THAT LIST. MAY HE REST IN PEACE, HE MOST CERTAINLY DESERVES THIS REST. AFFECTIONATELY AND HUMBLY YOURS, H. ALVAREZ...U.S. ARMY 1968-1970. Added: September 30, 2011

I am too a member of the SAMC # 7 as a inductee and had the please of meet Audie Murphys sister that is still doing well and had the urge to call her and she is fine. Very nice lady I may add and I am very proud of the accomplishments that Audie did for our country which set an example for other soldier's and civilians in the futures to come. I have a book published called "A Soldier's Dying Heart" at which I presented to Mrs Murphy and it talks about the sick veterans of the Gulf War and explains how they are not alone and the issues with the Veterans Administration and the Government and POLITICS and how they pass the buck.. Live well...... Nadine Added: September 28, 2011 Powered by PHP Guestbook - brought to you by PHP Scripts

I watched the movie tonight of Audie Murphy titled, "To Hell and Back". It was such a touching story about Audie's young life. I have always heard the name but had never seen any movie about him. I also told my husband tonight that the young people need to know about this man and began asking him questions about Audie. He told me to check his life story out on google. This is reason I am now commenting. What a moral, family loving, dedicated young man he was. I agree about bringing his memory alive again for our youth of America. Joan A. Suess
