After the workout is over we will be cooking out and have games for everyone to play (corn hole, spike ball, etc.) and will put up Lone Survivor on the projector. We will also plan to rent a bounce house or some other type of blow up for the kids (and adults) to jump around in and have fun.
Invite your friends and family to come participate or cheer you on, and lets make this an awesome get together!
Read the full story of Murphy below (sourced from Sofrep)
Murphy was killed in action while taking part in a kill or capture mission in Afghanistan during Operation Red Wings. He was a member of SEAL Delivery Team Vehicle Team ONE as the commander of Alpha Platoon and was deployed to Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Operation Red Wings was a counter-insurgency mission in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. The mission was for Murphy along with SEALs Danny Dietz, Matthew Axelson, and Marcus Luttrell to locate and then either kill or capture Afghan top resistance leader, Ahmad Shah (code name Ben Sharmak), who commanded a large group of insurgents west of Asadabad.
The follow-on missions of Operation Red Wings after the neutralization of the target and his insurgent group were for the US Marines in the area to pacify and improve the stability of the Afghan villages in the area.
The team was inserted by helicopter using a fast rope technique and covering the insertion near the border of Pakistan by conducting a series of false insertions to throw off any Taliban or insurgent forces in the area
