Comment:
My first Audie Murphy film was John Huston's version of "The Red Badge of Courage" in high school. When I was in the Army 20 years ago, my platoon sergeant (a female), was chosen to join the Audie Murphy Club. I don't remember the first time I saw "To Hell and Back", but I have watched it and/or shown it to my foreign military students many times since then. They enjoy the film as much as I do. He passed away in the plane crash 2 months after I was born. I have also visited his grave site at Arlington. (I will warn you it's a bit tough to find in spite of it being near the Amphitheater.) I've seen many of his other films. Do you realize that two of his co-stars (in two separate movies), Denver Pyle and James Best, went on to co-star with each other in "The Dukes of Hazzard"?

Now that I live in Texas, I hope to visit his museum near his hometown someday.

I am a retired Navy Master Chief and a veteran of Vietnam. Audie Murphy has always been one of my heroes. I was born in and grew up in Texas. My dad was born June 21, 1925, just one day after Audie Murphy. He also joined the service (Navy) in December 1942. He was born in Daingerfield Texas just a few miles from where Audie was born. I am a teacher now, NJROTC, at a high school for the past 21 years. I teach my classes each year about Audie Murphy.

What can a person say about Audie Murphy. Looked like a baby and yet became the most decorated solider in WWII. Lived through the depression and served with honor through the war. Was liked by anyone who met him and his buddies. Went on to become a famous movie star. Everyone needs to remember guys like this. Without them we may not be living the way we do today. Thanks Audie,
May you rest in peace. You certainly deserve it.

Born in Nashville Tennessee in 1956 I grew up not only watching Audie Murphey movies but listening to my parents and the neighborhood parents all talk about his heroic actions. My dad spoke of his bravery. My mother, his bravery and good looks. Every neighborhood child knew his name and deeds and when anybody played Army someone would always call out " I'm going to be Audie Murphey" usually followed with a "No your not, I am" if anyone got to play army they considered themselves fortunate. Great memories from days long past that may never come again.
