Murphy proved the old saying "its not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog" Tiny guy, rose from private to battlefield commision. Had to play himself in a biopic in hollywood (weird), did so much for PTSD for fellow servicemen after the war. Incredible life cut way too short.
Thanks to you I had a really good understanding of the movements of Audie Murphy here. I visited this spot last July and it was impressive to be there and see the ditch, the fields etc. With your information and some other sources I had a good idea of the actions there.
@@WW2Wayfinder I totally recommend it, very humbling and sadly it’s a large Cemetery. Washington also has the Vietnam Wall Memorial , a Korean War Memorial and a WW2 Memorial too and many other museums
Hi Johnny Hahaha I’m trying to watch your video and watch ‘To hell and back’ 😂 Luckily I have perfected this feat with the assistance of Jack Daniels 😂😂😂 Great work mate

He was an incredible man and a true leader!
The man is a legend. He deserved every medal he earned

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and that you’ve been able to visit the location as well! The memorial there is wonderful isn’t it.
We found his grave at Arlington Cemetery, he was an amazing person, thanks for posting this.
A place I'd love to visit one day so I could do the same! I bet it was a very moving experience for you to go there.

And he got to play his role again in Hollywood. With the same risk= legend
Incredible isn’t it!
He came home because he fought like he dont plan on coming home.🇺🇸😁👍

Great work mate
Haha glad you’re enjoying them!
I haven’t seen To Hell and Back in years, one for a rainy afternoon I reckon!
Very interesting fact, Audie earned EVERY medal the USA gives for bravery ~~~before he was old enough to vote…let that sink in!
He was an incredible man and to think he rose through the ranks and achieved what he did and then how acting went on to help with his PTSD post war!
@@WW2Wayfinder with an education that went to 5th grade too! Seriously stunning and inspiring
I just want to comment on one thing. You don’t “win” a MOH. You earn it.
When men were Men.
Very much so!
I’m confused did he jump on the enemy tank gun or one of our tank guns?
