    Now former Staff Sgt. Clinton L. Romesha and his best friend, now 1st Lt. Brad Larson pose for a photo in Afghanistan in 2009. The two men were so close that they could be several hundred feet away in battle, and each would intuitively know the other's next move. The two leaned on each other and other Soldiers in Bravo Troop, 3rd Squadron, 61st Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division after eight of their own were killed in a massive enemy assault on Combat Outpost Keating Oct. 3, 2009. Larson was awarded a Silver Star for his actions that day, and for his heroism, Romesha will receive the Medal of Honor in a Feb. 11, 2013, White House ceremony. (Photo courtesy of Clinton L.
