Soldiers meet Feb. 19, 2020, in building 905 at Fort McCoy, Wis., in the first meeting of the post Sgt. Audie Murphy Club chapter. During the meeting, new officers for the chapter were elected and the first business items of the chapter were completed. The chapter’s namesake, Murphy, was arguably America’s most decorated combat Soldier of World War II and was a famous movie star. Murphy earned and received every decoration for valor the United States had to offer, including the Medal of Honor, plus five decorations presented to him by France and Belgium. Murphy fought in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, and Germany, and he earned a battlefield commission for courage and leadership ability, according to the website, audiemurphy.com. The club is a private U.S. Army organization for noncommissioned officers only. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
