Audie Murphy

Audie Murphy War Heroes
Audie Murphy did not appear to be someone who would be such a big hero. He was a short man and had a baby-face. He was a farm boy originally from Texas. His skills lead him to be one of the most-decorated heroes of WWII. How did he receive the Medal of Honor? Well, Murphy mounted an abandoned burning tank destroyer just by using a single machine gun. He was injured but somehow managed to stall the Germans long enough to mount the Allied counterattack making them retreat. He came home and starred as himself in the film To Hell and Back.
