Photo of Navy SEALs, including Petty Officer 2nd Class Michael A.
Monsoor (faced unblurred), who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for falling on a grenade and saving the lives of his comrades.
Monsoor was part of a SEAL sniper unit that was operating in Ramadi.
When an insurgent hurled a grenade onto the SEAL's rooftop postion, Monsoor dived on it, absorbing the blast, saving his fellow SEALs, an act that cost him his life.
