Audie Murphy ended the war as an captain, and was considered the "most decorated" American soldier of the war for many years. But Murphy earned most of his decorations as an enlisted man, before accepting a battlefield commission, then earning his Medal of Honor. In recent decades many have pointed to Major Matt Urban as a possible contender for the most decorated WWII soldier. Urban was an ROTC man from Cornell University, and earned all his decorations while serving as an officer. Urban served with the 60th Infantry of the 9th Infantry Division; Murphy was with the 15th Infantry of the 3rd Infantry Division.
