I am honored to have a chance to learn and read about a man who overcame so much hardship, both in and out of the Army. No one could ever ask for a better role model. May he rest in peace and blessing be with his family and comrades. Dog Face Soldiers all the way! Sabrina A.Hernandez SSG, USA 10 yrs. Added: June 14, 2011
Comment:
It is true that we lack Hero's today. I believe we lack hero's because so many people lack a proper foundation. Tabloid journalism is destroying our way of life. Also reality TV is another destroyer Of society. There was a time when you were ashamed to bring things to light. You worked On them in private, or with family help. Now people are getting paid to embellish. There is no sense of purpose or honor. Thanks for keeping Audie before us to see a real hero. life. ![]() Added: June 13, 2011 Powered by PHP Guestbook - brought to you by PHP Scripts

Dear Audie Murphy,
You lived among us long ago
And did the best you could.
You gave us more than you’ll ever know;
Perhaps more than we ever would.
Life was not an easy fare;
Struggle was part of your terrain.
You certainly endured more than your share—
Of poverty, hunger, war and pain.
True, there were times of deep despair,
But you carried on with love and great care.
You carried on through it all,
While helping others in your wake.
Ready to lay down your life if
That was the call –
The call so many don’t dare to take.
It’s not the perfect life that we admire.
The lives that touch our hearts are the
Ones that inspire.
You touched our hearts that is clear.
You showed us courage in face of fear.
You took the risks and paid so dear.
The cost was great, that is true,
But you did your best to see it through.
Perhaps that is why we turn to you --
To find the strength that we require
To face our country’s troubles
that appear so dire.
You have our admiration –
A member of the greatest generation;
Thank you for your inspiration
To help us preserve and protect our mighty but ailing nation.
