I've seen the movie on Audie Murphy's life as well as several of his movies over the years. I first become aware of him when I was very young and saw the movie about him. His name as well as being awarded the CMH has stayed with me through my adult life. Mr. Murphy was a true hero and patriot of the United States. May his memory never fade. Added: August 21, 2014

I have been a fan of Audie Murphy since I was 12 and my parents took me to see Tumbleweed. When I heard he was going to be the Grand Marshal at the Sheriffs' Rodeo in LA, I just had to go. My mother drove me to one of the sheriff stations to get tickets. While the deputy was arranging tickets with my mother I pulled a picture of Audie from my purse and told him how much I loved him. Well, the deputy pulled out his wallet and gave us box seat tickets. I was so excited. I had a front row seat. When Audie rode past, he stopped right in front of me. Well, I was standing to take a picture but I was so shaken I didn't get a photo. As he moved down the path, my brother yelled that his sister wanted to take his picture and he turned and posed. I was still so shaken I just got the side of his head. The rodeo was just a blur for me after that. That night I wrote him a long letter about my experience. I received an autographed photo later in the mail. I was so devastated when I heard of his crash and death. I even went to the service that was held at Forest Lawn. I was one of the last to get into the chapel. I will always be a fan and always love Audie Murphy. Added: August 13, 2014 Powered by PHP Guestbook - brought to you by PHP Scripts
