No man can go through years of combat and not be affected negatively. Audie Murphy needed help he never got because in those days most people thought PTSD (then known as battle fatigue) was a passing thing. Today, we know better. He was a great soldier, but he was still just a human being.

[@rebeccamariabolton7131]

He was a real life badass , total hero❤❤❤❤

[@billmurray7473]

Audie Murphy was a Real Life Captain America.

[@arnepianocanada]

Asked why he would take such risky action in wild attack against the Germans, he replied siimply, "They were killing my friends."

[@francisebbecke2727]

My sister lived down the street from the Murphy family in Greenville, TX. Audie Murphy had his anger issues as can well be expected considering what he had been through. Law enforcement covered for him a lot. Audie Murphy was to infantrymen what Rembrandt was to artists and Mozart was to musical composers.

And then some!

Audie Murphy had sort of a Napoleonic complex, and it showed! He was always trying to be a "big guy" and got himself into self-induced problems! Sure, he was a hero in the war, but so were hundreds of other guys, Murphy simply had more notoriety as an actor because he served in the war.

[@ArizonaAirspace]

@@mjleger4555Wrong. Audie Murphy was NOT an actor before the War. He signed up as a teenager AND HE WAS THE MOST HIGHLY DECORATED US SOLDIER. Murphy became an actor after he was discharged from the Army. He was a hero and suffered from PTSD. Do your research before making your narrow minded judgments.

[@billmurray7473]

Sadly, many of his movies would be hard to find now. You'd have to Google his works , but it would be worth it.

[@sheilatruax6172]

I have them all. It took 2 months and 3 different vendors. Got em!

[@Susan-n1t]

Always watch his films one tough cookie

[@ravenhill_night_visitor_1968]

This man was a hero and a great actor,I love all his movies.

[@nancycalhoun3702]

He suffered from PTSD. It's no wonder. He was still fighting the enemy in his sleep. Had nightmares.

[@Outlier999]

So did my father, also a WWII veteran. They called it "battle fatigue" then, and most people thought it was a temporary problem that would pass with time. It didn't.

[@sallykohorst8803]

I enjoyed his work so thanks for sharing this story.

[@ellove370]

Here's someone who was constantly rejected from the armed services but once he was accepted he became one of the best service men!

[@Americaone1]

The most decorated soldier of WWII testified during the Vietnam War that he suffered from depression and suicidal thoughts....PTSD🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

[@roundtwo3321]

I heard that his wife made him sleep locked in the garage because of his loud and violent, nightmares/PTSD. There are some really sad and destitute stories about Audie's bad childhood.

[@democolor42]

while he was alive, nobody cared to save him from financial ruin, nobody gave hand of help, but after death they gave honourable burial. america did not deserve such great man

[@ravenhill_night_visitor_1968]

Great man, God knows we could use a few like him today.....

[@alancrisp1582]

🤔 Really, we could why ?. We have very old 🧓 president with Dementia, who keeps forgetting his own wife's name !. A bunch of useless government politicians..A very out of control crime rate, we are bankrupt.And I am going getting started. No we are just fine !. 😂😅😊

[@ravenhill_night_visitor_1968]

@@alancrisp1582 All men are flawed, but clearly Audie Murphy was guided significantly by humility, courage and the willingness to serve. I can remember when it was not uncommon for people to aspire to those values. It's a real pity that they have been replaced in recent years by self-absorption, crass virtue signaling and false crusading, all cheap motivations cynically promoted by the left. We would do well to actively reject them for the truer, more effectively beneficial values of men like Murphy.

Still watch his films today ❤

[@teller1290]

It always interests me why narrators constantly leave out what else Murphy did that day he won the Medal of Honor; he called in artillery fire on the large number of the enemy tryng to make their way across a muddy field (with some tanks accompanying them). I guess that doesn't sound heroic and they leave it out. Strange.

[@onemercilessming1342]

It isn't a "saying". It's part of an old song sung by Gene Autry, and quoted by General Douglas MacArthur in a speech at West Point. Why don't you bloggers ever look anything up???

[@justanopinion_really]

Many WW2 soldiers came home with memories no one should ever experience or witness. I believe, Audie Murphy, like many of the greatest generation continued with life and spoke very little if any of what they experience. Yes, we have a record of what he did to become the most decorated WW2 soldier; but we don’t have what he experienced mentally and emotionally.

Interesting!

[@skeletonbuyingpealts7134]

Battle Fatigue, Shell Shock, according to Patton he's a coward
