Cmdr. Tom Shultz, commanding officer of the guided-missile destroyer USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112), departs the ship for the first time at his new homeport of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. The new destroyer honors Lt. (SEAL) Michael P. Murphy, a New York native who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions in combat as leader of a four-man reconnaissance team in Afghanistan. Murphy was the first person to be awarded the medal for actions in Afghanistan, and the first member of the U.S. Navy to receive the award since the Vietnam War.
