Hi , Gus. “B” westerns have always held a special appeal for me , and Audie Murphy’s charisma and likability easily stand up to decades of repeat viewings. But until Shane and I watched a youtube video on his military exploits I had just a vague realization that the guy had won some medals.

Suffice to say I was floored at the man’s heroism. His courageous exploits truly defy belief. I don’t think I will ever wrap my mind around the little baby-faced dude with the big girly butt (or maybe western fashions from the 50’s were just THAT unflattering?) single handedly taking out entire enemy battalions.
