In looking for themes for stamps to honor the Millineum, please consider
not only a series for Audie Murphy (which I strongly endorse) but a set
of various series on all our Medal of Honor recipients. Men like Dan
Daly (2 awards), Smedly Butler (2 awards), Ton Custer (2 awards), Jimmie
Howard (who led the most decorated single unit in US Military history -
Medal of Honor, (4) Navy Crosses - 14 Silver Stars - 18 Purple Hearts.
Awarded to the 18 man platoon Jimmie led).

Audie Murphy, a true war hero, being one of the United States' most
decorated veterans, richly deserves the recognition of this country by
the issuance of a commemorative stamp or stamp series.

All generations appreciate and love Audie Murphy. I am 16 and I think
that his blood shed for our country is more than enough to qualify him
for this honor.

There are few men like Audie Murphy, unfortunately. His bravery must be
honored. Thank you Audie Murphy! Please remember this man and help
others understand how honor and bravery have made this country such a
great nation.

There is no excuse for the Postal Service to not have already honored
Medal of Honor winner and American icon Audie Murphy. It is past time
to rectify this injustice with an entire stamp series of Audie Murphy
stamps.

This stamp series would only start to honor the true heroes of our nation -
the American Military. The other stamp series you have authorized are
somewhat ridiculous in comparison. You may not have served in the Armed
Forces, but you are enjoying the benefits of us who are serving. Do the
right thing.

No person living or dead deserves more recognition for military valor than
SGT Audie Murphy. Please do everything possible to ensure that he is
properly honored with a commemorative stamp. Its the very least our
country can do to preserve his memory for the generations to come.

Audie Murphy was a great person, a great American, and he was the
greatest soldier this country has ever know. I fully support a stamp or
series of stamps being issued in his honor. I am very surprised that
there has not been a stamp of Audie Murphy already issued. Thank you
for your consideration of this matter.

I am a retired Canadian Soldier who has great respect for all Allied
soldiers who fought and died during the horrific wars. I question why
you would attempt to erase the memories of all who gave you freedom. No
wonder children are killing children. They no longer have wholesome
examples.

When we refuse to honor any American, especially someone as worthy of
honor, we send a message to our children that there are no worthy heroes
to look up to. I would rather my sons and daughter know the people that
emulate what it means to serve this country with honor and dignity, than
to ask themselves "who cares if I do great or not". What did Bugs Bunny
ever do for America except to keep our children glued to the TV and get
obese, lazy, and learn how to drop an anvil on a duck's head. Sure, I
loved watching Bugs Bunny on Saturday mornings and my children do too
but he is a cartoon after all. Audie Murphy was a human being and a
great one at that. He defined what it means to be an American and has
always been my hero next to my father and drill sergeant. Give him the
respect he deseves!

What is the problem with honoring this great American Hero with a stamp
series? What's up, Doc? Is Bugs Bunny more important? Have such heroes
as Audie Murphy been forgotten even by an important agency such as the
Post Office? The American people want and expect that this great hero
be commemorated with a stamp series. Just look at the signatures on
this petition.

Audie Murphy should have been honored with an entire stamp series a long
time ago. He was a great American hero. He should be awarded a stamp
series long before Elvis and many others. Audie Murphy fought hard in
many war battles with great pride for this country.

Audie Murphy is the most decorated combat soldier in the entire 200 year
history of the U.S. military. Born in 1924 and died in 1971, his short
life should be honored for his bravery and his sterling example of the
strengths of the human spirit.

When choosing who should be on a stamp that graces many letters criss
crossing this nation and many others, looking for someone to look up to
instead of sideways should be a major motivation for the postal establishment.
We live in a society that has few real heroes. Should not the ones we
have be honored? Heroes are just common people who make both good and
bad decisions but do the best they can with what they have at hand when
the time to be counted is upon them. These are the people our next
generation needs to see more of.

For my entire live Audie Murphy's patriotism and sacrifice has inspired
me. Because of him I enlisted in the Marine Corps and served for 6 years.
His memory and sacrifice should be brought to the attention of this
generation (my generation) in order to bring their attention to the great
sacrifices of the people which have placed themselves in harms way to allow
them to watch MTV.

Bugs Bunny was not a hero to the American people. Audie Murphy is. Heroes
during this current administration are either non-existent or are demonized
by the liberals. Let's not forget our heroes from the past. Audie Murphy
is such a hero. To do honor and justice to our heroes, a commemorative
stamp should be appropriate.

What did Bugs Bunny do for our country. Audie Murphy was the most
decorated soldier, a son any mother or father would be proud to call
theirs. He deserves a stamp.

By remembering Audie Murphy, we remember all those men and women who have
given their full measuere of devotion to this country. By symbolizing
this devotion on the face of a stamp, we add to the social conscience of
our nation. If one stamp can let us be a part of history, promote unity
and pride, then what better medium of communication than this.

Elvis, Mickey Mouse, etc. Not to put Audie Murphy on a stamp is an
insult to everyone of us. If it were not for the Audie Murphy's of this
world, our stamps would be yellow with a big red ball in the center and
we would all be making VCRs and little itsy bitsy cars and eating raw
fish and rice. So get on the ball and do what's right and do it soon.

Too few of today's young people appreciate the deeds done by our soldiers.
Audie Murphy, being the most decorated soldier of WWII, should be honored
with a stamp series so that everyone will see and read about him and his
bravery!
