12344mag,
MAJ Audie Murphy is a classic case of what the late Paul "Bear" Bryant (FB coach at The University of AL) always said: "It's not the size of the dog in the fight. It's the size of the fight in the dog."
At 16YO (YES, Audie lied about his age to join the TXARNG.), and according to his official Army service record, he was about 65 inches tall & weighed 120 pounds, as of the date of enlistment.
ImVho, MAJ Audie Murphy was as pure of a warrior as modern America is ever likely to see again. = We GIs of the 3/144th Infantry, TXARNG still/will forever HONOR his service/valor/memory.
Yours, TMN78247
