‘You matter to us more than you’ll ever understand,’ Medal of Honor recipient says to Military Health System
BLUF – Retired Army Captain and Medal of Honor recipient Florent Groberg told attendees at the 2026 Military Health System Conference that leadership is about listening, valuing people, and building trust rather than relying on rank or authority. Drawing on his recovery from severe combat injuries sustained in Afghanistan, he credited military medical professionals, fellow wounded warriors, and mental health care with helping him overcome physical and psychological trauma. Groberg emphasized that seeking help is a sign of strength, encouraged open discussion of mental health challenges, and thanked Military Health System personnel for the life-saving care they provide to service members.
