Gunnery Sgt. Louis Pope, a reconnaissance Marine with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s Maritime Raid Force, sourced from Force Reconnaissance Company, 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, prepares to read the Medal of Honor citation for Navy Lt. Michael Murphy prior to conducting the “Murph” workout aboard the amphibious transport dock ship USS New York (LPD 21) in the Red Sea, May 24, 2015. Murphy was a Navy SEAL who was killed in Afghanistan supporting Operation Enduring Freedom and the intense workout named after him has become a Memorial Day tradition for many Americans. The 24th MEU is embarked on the ships of the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group and are deployed to maintain regional security in the U.S. 5th Fleet Area of operations. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
