1:08Now PlayingPresident Obama presented Army Capt. Florent Groberg with the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military honor, during a ceremony at the White House Thursday. While serving in Afghanistan, Groberg tackled a suicide bomber, sustaining major injuries to his leg while saving the lives of other soldiers. Groberg is the 79th living recipient of the Medal of Honor and just the 10th living recipient from the war in Afghanistan. "On his very worst day, he managed to summon his very best. That's the nature of courage," President Obama said. "He showed his guts, he showed his training, how you put it all on the line for his teammates. That's an American we can all be grateful for. That's why we honor Capt. Florent Groberg today."
