That sign is stored in the museum. They don't display it.

Also, Audie Murphy enlisted in the Army in Greenville.

I really need to go to the Audie Murphy / American Cotton Museum next time I'm out that way.

I have visited several times. You'll enjoy it. There's a book there with listings and newspaper clippings circa WWII about local men who were in the military. Many of my relatives are in it, some of whom knew Audie Murphy.
