Which SEALs received a Medal of Honor for their heroism in current conflicts?

The selection of SO2 Michael Monsoor, LT Michael Murphy, and SOCS Edward Byers reflects significant acts of heroism that earned them the Medal of Honor for their bravery and sacrifice in current conflicts.

Michael Monsoor was awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously for his actions during a firefight in Iraq in 2006, where he threw himself onto a grenade to save his teammates, demonstrating extraordinary courage and selflessness. Similarly, LT Michael Murphy was recognized for his leadership during a reconnaissance mission in Afghanistan in 2005, where he exposed himself to enemy fire to call for help, ultimately sacrificing his life for the sake of his team. SOCS Edward Byers received the Medal of Honor for his actions in a successful hostage rescue operation in Afghanistan in 2012, showing exceptional valor and professionalism under fire.

The other candidates listed in the other choices, while notable military figures, are not recognized with the Medal of Honor for their actions in these conflicts and therefore do not fulfill the requirements of the question.
