    Sergeant Royce R. Hughie, team leader, Scout Sniper Platoon, Battalion Landing Team 3/5, 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, was awarded the Bronze Star with the “V” combat distinguishing device by Gen. James F. Amos, Commandant of the Marine Corps, in the hangar bay of the USS Peleliu, Dec. 28. Hughie received the award for his actions during 3/5’s last deployment to Sangin Province, Afghanistan, from 2010-2011.

The 15th MEU is deployed as part of the Peleliu ARG as a U.S. Central Command theater reserve force, providing support for maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility. Hughie, 24, is from Springfield, Mo. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. John Robbart III)
