Document Summary
Read audie murphy"s medal of honor citation on pages 160-1 and his poem on page 163-4. Audie murphy"s medal of honor citation contradict adler"s quote where adler states young men of the postwar generation were self conscious of their disillusionment and demoralization. In audie murphy"s medal of honor citation , it can be clearly seen that lt. murphy spared his life despite the pain and agony he went through to defend the mission till his last breath. Such act of nobleness does not come from mere forcible acts but from a true pride of being a nationalist. All the young corporals and army members were found dead as they sacrificed their energy and effort to defend the nation for us all and not for the sake of personal gains. The intensity of torture the young boy went through exemplifies the amount of love and ardent pride he had of being part of the nation"s defenders.
