I remember as a young girl, my Momma telling me the story of Audie Murphy, she also took me to the movies to see him on the big screen. I was smitten from that moment on. As I got older, I educated myself through very few resources about this great HERO from the state of Texas of these United States. Thank GOD, he was so determined. God Bless!! Added: May 29, 2018

My dad and my uncles all fought in Europe in WW2. They never talked about it. Most of what I learned came from movies like 'Red Badge of Courage' as a kid. I grew up only to serve in the infantry in Vietnam. I always admired Audie and always feel a kinship with him. A different war; a different generation. We have a bond that will never be broken. We did our best; but the fight for freedom must never end. Our nation is the worlds only hope. Added: May 29, 2018

Hi. My Dad introduced me to Audie Murphy.He told me about his bravery in the 2 World War and all the medals he received. I remember when Audie lost his life. Dad commenting on the tragedy. My Dad loved Audies movies and I'd often sit and watch them with him. I think he felt a kinship with Audie as he served his National Service in Germany from 1951 to 1953. Sadly my Dad passed away in 2017 but thanks to him I will always remember Audie Murphys bravery. Added: May 28, 2018

I just saw The Red Badge of Courage on this, Memorial Day. My first time seeing it. I looked up Mr. Murphy's name and read about his service in all the wars he was in and the very impressive medals he was awarded. I am in awe! I also read about his early life and about his thoughts when his Mother died, and all his siblings and how he did his best to take care of them. I was very sad to read that he had died at an early age. Thank you very much for your service. RIP Sir. Added: May 28, 2018

From the time I was 8yo and Mom would let me go to the library I studied and copied anything I could find on Mr Murphy. I found the movie "To Hell and Back" and was in awe of this man. I wrote papers in school until I was told I needed to branch out a little. My Mother found me a first edition of the book "To Hell and Back" I didn't, at the time, understand the significance of a first edition so I read and reread it. I still have it in a place of pride in my home and I still reread it from time to time. He was and still is my second Hero of all. Dad will always be first. Added: May 28, 2018

June 1960, peace time Kitzingen, Germany, my patrol partner Merle Spicer of Cedar Rapids, Iowa and myself were given the honor of Guarding and Protecting Audie Murphy while filming a documentary, "Return To The 3rd Division, Than and Now". We found Audie to be very Humble and Polite and even asked us if we wish a photo with him of which we gratefully replied yes. This photo in located in my possession and in the Allegheny Kiski Historical Society Museum along with other photos of this special occasion. I will submit the photo if asked to do so, it shows Audie asking us to pretend we are apprehending him being Merle and I are 536th M.P's Added: May 28, 2018 Powered by PHP Guestbook - brought to you by PHP Scripts
