I fell in love with Audie from his western movies.. When I think of Audie, I think of the way he walks (there’s something so commanding and subtle about it...I can’t get how he does it), and the way he talks. He rarely needs to shout in his movies or raise his voice - he controls everything so calmly. He’s such a good cowboy...one of the best.. I watched his movies for a few years before discovering that he was a soldier. After reading his books, and doing research on him, my admiration for this small man grew. I am so angry at how little recognition for his service he has. This is THE bravest soldier to our knowledge, yet no one knows anything about him! We talk about honoring the memories of fallen soldiers-but we have failed him so badly. He was a true patriot, he stood for America, and gave his services selflessly. Yet, NO ONE seems to know who Audie Murphy is. Audie is such a character in his movies! I don’t think there’s a single movie I have seen with him in it, that I didn’t like. Reading about him in real life shows how wonderful a man he was. Yes, he was a human; But what was underneath was as good as gold. Added: November 28, 2020

My father and six Uncles were in WWII. My father was the baby of the family and was 17 when he enlisted in the Army. When he was 15 he joined the Merchant Marines, then at 17 joined the Army. My father always talked highly of Audie Murphy, which gave me a love for him too. My father was in the Pacific,. My father and I watched Audie Murphy’s movies. Even though my Dad was very young when he went into the war, just as Audie Murphy, I believe Audie Murphy became a Hero to my Dad after the war. I miss my father so, but have been so blessed to have been raised by the greatest generation ever. May Audie’s heroism and service be remembered always.

Audie Murphy has been a hero and roll model since I was a young boy playing with my G.I Joes and watching westerns.
Thanks for keeping his memory alive!
