One of three men most influential in my life. 1SG Murphy (graduate of the 7th Army NCO Academy, Bad Tolz, West Germany) was that to so many more of his soldiers, the result of being one of the top 10 enlisted leaders in the U.S. Army. He cared for every one of his soldiers, and ruled with a "gloved" iron fist, but NOBODY messed with his troops without dealing with him.
