I grew up watching his westerns as a young lad, but really did not see "To Hell and Back" till around my midddle teens! What an impact he has made in my life. With the help of a fellow Brother in Arms, I went on to become a member of the S*A*M*C while stationed at Fort Benning, GA., and damn proud of it! Thanks Audie ![]() Added: September 26, 2011

I grew up in Silverton, Colorado. I had the memorable experience of meeting Audie Murphy when he made the movie "Night Passage" with Jimmy Stewart. I was nine years old. He spent time with the kids there. He showed us his neckerchief collection and he bought me a 7-Up candy bar. Quite a memory for me as a child! He made a lasting impression. I currently teach kindergarten and pass information about him along as the opportunity arises. He is truly an American hero! Added: September 25, 2011

America needs more people like Audie Murphy. A true hero in every sence of the word. He did what he needed , not to be a hero but, to defend the country he loved. He will never be forgotten not only as a American war hero but as an American actor. This generation needs to take a good look at what American Heros were in the past and cherish thier dedication to this country. Added: September 24, 2011

I wish with all of my being that every generation would realize that all of their rights and priveleges were guaranteed by the Constitution and that those rights and priveleges were protected by the greatest generation.Great men like Mr. Audie Murphy and many others paid the price to insure our freedom from fascism and genocide at the hands of the Germans and Japanese.Many thanks to all of you who served and are now serving.

I grew up watching Audie Murphy in the movies and especially enjoyed To Hell And Back. I read the book as well in grade school and always held his courage and humility in high esteem. I retired from the Navy so I understand the bond that exists between men whose lives often depend upon their comrades. The book, the movie, and his life eloquently reflect this.
