Sir: I believe that the most decorated soldier in ANY war should be honored
with his likeness on a postage stamp of the government that he so
unselfishly served. His courage shown, not to win medals, but because
the job had to be done, ws demonstrated by many soldiers, sailors, marines,
and airmen, but he did it a little better. Please consider this petition
when you are making your decision.

Audie Murphy is a true American original. Not only is he a much decorated
war hero, but also a successful movie star, songwriter, and entrepreneur, as
well as a friend, husband, and a father. Certainly this great American
deserves this overdue recognition from his country!

The United States citizens should never forget the contribution Audie Murphy
made to this country. It is hoped that he will never be forgotten.

This true American Hero is long overdue for the honor of a stamp series! It
is a disgrace that you should have honored Bugs Bunny before Audie Murphy. I
will not buy Bugs Bunny stamps but rather use the one with Old Glory. You
remember what it looks like, don't you? Just walk out in front of any US
Post Office! It's the one on the flagpole with the Stars and Stripes. A
man who loved and honored that flag with his blood was Audie Murphy. He is
as much a symbol of love of country as the Star Spangled Banner!

Please honor Mr. Audie Murphy with an entire stamp series. He is more a
part of "today's America" than Elvis Presley. Without Elvis, America would
be no different! I can't imagine what we would be living like today without
Mr. Murphy! Thank you.

Audie Murphy is a true American hero. Let us not forget his sacrifices he
suffered in our freedom we all enjoy today. Let Audie's military service and
his earning of the Congressional Medal of Honor live on with all Americans
for years to come with this commemorative stamp collection series. Let
every young American be a part of the American patriot, Audie Murphy, and
his heroic military service, as an incentive to join the military and serve
his or her country proudly.

I have gathered names on the petition and found that many of our young people
don't know who Audie Murphy was or anything about him. What a shame that a
great American Hero has not been passed down to our young folks of today. Let's
get some stamps issued, that will be a start. I'm an old retired soldier proud
of all our veterans past and present.

I find it hard to believe that the most decorated hero in America's history
wasn't automatically honored with a stamp. Who could possibly deserve one
more than he?

Many good, but lesser people, have been honored with stamps. Audie Murphy
was and is the most decorated soldier in American history. He laid his live on
the line on an almost daily basis during WWII. A true hero in every sense of
the word, he deserves recognition. Our failure to honor him with a whole
series of stamps is not only a national disgrace, but bad business as well.
There are millions who would buy such stamps for their collections.

Audie Murphy fought for our country in a time when it meant something. He
sacrificed his own life and safety over and over. He was a man of honor. He
had more courage than most men today have or ever will have. His men and his
country were important to him. He believed that you had to risk your life to
defend your home and way of life. Not many men living today have such strong
belief's as Audie had. Being an American meant something to him. Please
honor this fine soldier with a stamp. No one deserves to be honored more
than a man that put his own life before others in a time in our history when
it meant so much. America should be proud to honor Audie Murphy.

I knew the late Mr. Murphy as a youngster in Dallas, Texas in the early 1960's.
Those were difficult times for america. I do not recall working for him as a
caddy, but I do recall him serving me with a hamburger when many white men fed
their dogs a meal at the club house rather than feed a Negro (that was what we
wer called then). Mr. Murphy never talked much about the war or his many medals
but he did treat me and other Blacks with respect and dignity. He always asked
about our families and our education. I think he should be honored with a
stamp for his glory in war and in peace.

It's fine that we have had stamps for fish, ducks, locomotives, fire engines,
etc. Now let's have a commemorative stamp for a man that gave his all that
we may have our freedoms.

I think Audie Murphy was very brave. He certainly deserves a stamp. All
Americans should remember him and be grateful for what he did.

It's time to honor our military heroes for the tremendous sacrifices they
made for our country. Audie Murphy was certainly one of the greatest.

I am appalled that the USPS would ignore such a hero as Audie Murphy and favor
things as cartoon characters as subjects for stamps. Perhaps the choice of
cartoon characters is an indication of the maturity level of the individuals
making the decisions on stamps at the USPS, and shows that they have little or
no appreciation for the fact that the great men and women who fought (and died)
to preserve that freedom of choice that they enjoy. Where has patriotism
gone? I think it is rather a poor testimony that in the case of choice between
nonsensical cartoon fiction and U.S. History, cartoons win. What a shame!
