Not the actor, the other Michael Murphy

Susan Candiotti and Ross Levitt have an article at CNN.com about the Navy's newest ship:

Under clear, blue skies, a ship dedicated to fallen Medal of Honor recipient and Navy SEAL Lieutenant Michael Murphy was christened by his mother, Maureen, at Bath Iron Works shipyard in Bath, Maine.
"I feel not only Michael's presence, but that ship embodies the spirits of Michael and his teammates," Murphy's father, Daniel, told CNN. Following tradition, Murphy's mother cracked a bottle of champagne against the hull of the USS Michael Murphy. "Happy Birthday, son!" Murphy's mom said, on what would have been her son's 35th birthday. His life was cut short in the mountains of Afghanistan in 2005.
Dr. Josh Appel, an Air Force Reserve flight surgeon, helped retrieve Murphy's body after a firefight that claimed the lives of eighteen other soldiers, including two SEALs from Murphy's team. Appel called the christening "a symbolic gesture that brings Michael's spirit into the ship."
On a mission to go after a Taliban leader, Murphy's team was ambushed and outnumbered by Taliban fighters. Murphy was honored for his courage by running into a clearing to radio for help, despite exposing himself to enemy fire. He was hit with two bullets in his back, but continued to seek help on the call. His final words to his command belied the deadly attack under way: "Thank you," he said.
"We can never repay, but must never ever forget," said Senator Olympia Snowe, in front of more than two thousand people at the shipyard.
The ship's dedication comes during a week of honors for Navy SEALs. Members of the elite special ops force killed Osama bin Laden during a forty-minute operation in Pakistan. "You're going to have good days. You're going to have bad days," Rear Admiral Garry Bonelli told CNN. "What we're trying to do is defend freedom and follow out the President's orders. That's what we're all about."
The destroyer will be moved to a dry dock for several months while workers put the final touches on it. The lettering on the stern of the ship doesn't need any more work: it may say Michael Murphy but, among its admirers, the ship is already being called "the Murph".
