Nov. 15, 2010 – Pete Souza: “It had been more than 40 years since a President had presented a Medal of Honor to a living recipient. Staff Sergeant Salvatore Giunta was that man, and he walked along the White House Colonnade with the President en route from the Oval Office to the public ceremony honoring him in the East Room.”
