pipedreams Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Audie Murphy 1950.... It ain't about the size of the dog in the fight. It's about the size of the fight in the dog! Audie L. Murphy: 5' 5 1/2" in height. It's a shame that kids today only know about this Patriot if their parents teach them about him. Two books on Audie can be downloaded for free here; https://b-ok.cc/book/3880894/db52e3 and https://b-ok.cc/book/21511070/366728. an additional book I read along time ago that was very good is "No Name On the Bullet".....the last two books cover in small part Murphy's terrible struggle with PTSD 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
