A Patriot Speaks: Audie Murphy

“Loyalty to your comrades, when you come right down to it, has more to do with bravery in battle than even patriotism does.  

You may want to be brave, but your spirit can desert you when things really get rough.  

Only you find you can’t let your comrades down and in the pinch they can’t let you down either."

——Audie Murphy, a Patriot, WW2 Medal of Honor recipient, plus 23 additional medals
