Audie Murphy


Audie Murphy, North Hollywood Lodge 542, California, was World War II's most decorated soldier.  As a Medal of Honor recipient, he could have had his Arlington Cemetery gravestone gilded, but instead chose to have a plain stone, no different from those of his fellow soldiers.  Still, aside from John Kennedy, Brother Murphy's grave is the most visited site at Arlington.  So many people come to see his grave the cemetery had to build a special walkway leading to it.
