Members of the U.S. Army 10th Mountain Division unit that were with Sergeant First Class Jared C. Monti when he was killed stand and are recognized by U.S. President Barack Obama (R) during a Monti's posthumous Medal of Honor ceremony in the East Room of the White House September 17, 2009 in Washington, DC. Sgt. Monti was killed June 21, 2006 in Afghanistan while attempting to rescue one of his fellow soldiers and fighting off an attack from insurgents. The Medal of Honor is given to a soldier 'for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty.' ***** Images
