Teen arrested for smashing Long Island war hero's memorial

Murphy, a native of Patchogue, L.I., was killed in late 2005 during a battle between his four-man team and more than 30 Afghani fighters. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for his courage, and his name graces the destroyer Michael Murphy. He was the first member of the Navy to be awarded the Medal of Honor since the Vietnam War.
