Have been here before. I believe kry226 has as well. No trip through the Colmar pocket would be complete without paying our respects to the location where Audie Murphy earned the Medal of Honor.

Audie Murphy truly was one of the greatest Americans to ever live, and it’s humbling to see his legacy honored in such a meaningful way.

Audie Murphy was a cousin of my Mother. She didn't discover this until she attended a family reunion on her Mother's side in the late 70's.
A Great American hero.
Adios,
Gary

A great hero but left his wife penniless and in debt.

Uprisings started or quelled, tornadoes rerouted, elections rigged.

Never thought I'd ever post this on here but it seems appropriate. Here is my Master's Thesis on the Colmar Pocket for anyone interested. Enjoy
