Such a modest stone given what this man did. It is hilarious to hear David Hackworth touted as the "most decorated soldier" ever, when he couldn't shine Audie Murphy's shoes.

We were watching "To Hell and Back" on AMC a couple of days ago, and my wife asked when Murphy died. Thanks for clearing it up.

"It is hilarious to hear David Hackworth touted as the "most decorated soldier" ever, when he couldn't shine Audie Murphy's shoes."Hackworth has never, ever been touted as "the most decorated soldier". He is often referred to as "the most decorated LIVING soldier". Try to keep up here, would ya?
Both Murphy and Hack are soldiers who did their country proud. Keep snide comments to yourself; maybe even lay your own battle record on the table.
