I was fortunate enough to meet his father Daniel Murphy at a convention Wednesday. He was without question one of the most quality human beings I have ever encountered in my 41 years.
I just loved how Marcus Luttrell put it in the book, "Lone Survivor," when he said 'if they made a monument of him that was the size of the Empire State Building, it still wouldn't be big enough for me.'
I have thanked God many times for giving the world Lt. Michael P. Murphy and for keeping Marcus Luttrell alive through the horrors of Operation Redwing so he could live to tell the story to others.
I'm a Navy Vet and read of Michael Murphy in the Navy Times. His story is probably the most quintessentially "untold" of all modern hero stories.
And because of that, I take the greatest pride and honor telling anyone that I can (whether I'm at college or wherever) about the selflessness and heroism of one -
I was reading a video post about the war in liberia in 2003 and one of the postings said that the US are savages in iraq and did not want to help in liberia, they ahould watch this video and see how americans are and can be.
RIP TO OPERATION REDWING SERVICE MEMBERS WHO MADE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE.
He was a Penn State Graduate. Yesterday, 23 APRIL 2009, the PSU NROTC unit attended a service to dedicate a room in his honor. We had the honor to not just see the medal, but shake the hands of Lt. Murphy's father, mother, and brother. We all said, "Thank you."
the fact that these guys nearly wiped out the taliban force is amazing.......i watch Murphy and Monsoor videos almost daily on youtube.......i just wish i could meet these 2 guys.....i guess when i get to the "other side" i'll get to thank them......
thank you mr. and mrs. murphy for bringing a truly amazing human being into the world.....
the story of Mike defending a special needs kid at school is just unreal......i will spend the rest of my life trying to "be like THIS mike"
Wonderful video! Just finished reading Marcus luttrells book "last survivor" and I can openly say that I cried alot when i read it. Im glad there is people out there like Michael Murphy and his fellow teammates in Navy Seal..
thank you sir
