Playing himself in the movie about himself. To Hell and Back.

Murphy receiving the MOH in Germany, 1945.

One of forty men to receive the MOH from 3rd ID, a subject of my next book. Died today, 1971, in air crash into a mountain. "It took a mountain to kill Audie." MOH #WW2 #3RDID

Veteran of four amphibious invasions. B Company, 15th Inf. Reg., 3rd ID. from North Africa via Sicily, Italy andf France to Germany. Could kill anything that moved with a carbine while he was running.

Wanted to get the MOH, he wrote his sister, so he'd have enough points to finally go home. Forever haunted, deeply disturbed by over five hundred days of combat. Hated war but never loved anyone more than the men who died as his close friends in combat. #AgainstAllOdds #WW2 #MOH

With Bob Maxwell, oldest living MOH recipient when I met him, December 2018. One of forty men - other than Audie Murphy - to receive MOH from 3rd ID - most decorated division in US history. #Againstallodds #MOH #WW2
