8 seconds of courage

On August 8, 2012, Amy Captain Flo Groberg tackled a suicide bomber in Afghanistan. He was guarding a high-level delegation of American and Afghan officials when the bomber approached. Four men died and Groberg himself was seriously wounded but he saved the lives of many others through his bravery. Three years later he received the Congressional Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award. Born in the suburbs of Paris, he was the first immigrant awarded the Medal of Honor since the Vietnam War.
