Comment:
I was 21 when I heard the news of the death of Audie Murphy. I remember I was in the kitchen of my parents home listening to the radio when the annoucement came. I stood and cried. In my mind, he was the epitome of what our military should represent. Young, humble and brave men that did what they felt was right and did it well without thought of recognition for doing their job. This was at a time when our country was still involved with Viet Nam and most people didn't treat the returning soldiers with any respect or compassion. Now, my son is in the military and tries to uphold the beliefs and courage that defined SSG Audie Murphy. Added: June 25, 2011

IT IS A SHAME THAT TODAY'S KIDS DON'T KNOW WHO AUDIE WAS AND THAT IF THEY WERE LOOKING FOR A REAL HERO, THEY COULD COME TO THIS MEMORIAL AND FIND OUT ABOUT A REAL HERO. THANKS YOU FOR PUTTING THIS UP FOR EVERYONE TO SEE. I WAS IN WASHINGTON D. C. THIS MONTH AND WAS ABOUT TO STAND BY HIS GRAVE, IT MADE ME REMEMBER ALL OVER AGAIN WHAT A GREAT AMERICAN HE WAS. SEEING THE FLOWERS AND MONEY THAT PEOPLE LEAVE ON HIS TOMBSTONE TELLS ME THAT THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE THAT FEEL THE WAY I DO. Added: June 23, 2011
