This illustration was created at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, June 11, 2026. The vector-based graphic was created for artwork display in the new II Marine Expeditionary Force Operations Center to commemorate the legacy of Gen. Alfred 'Al' M. Gray Jr. (June 22, 1928 – March 20, 2024), the 29th Commandant of the Marine Corps. The poster features a black-and-white portrait of Gen. Gray in combat utilities and covers his military philosophy — encapsulated in the phrases 'Fight. Think.' and 'Prepare. Act. Lead.' — along with his notable awards, including the Silver Star, Legion of Merit with Combat 'V,' Bronze Star with Combat 'V' (four awards), and Purple Heart (awarded twice). Gen. Gray is credited with implementing a mandatory reading list for all Marines during his tenure as Commandant. (U.S. Marine Corps illustration by Lance Corporal Aegean DeVaughn-Wilson)
