Simultaneously, he ordered another member of the security detail to assist with removing the suspect. At this time, Captain Groberg confirmed the bulge was a suicide vest. And with complete disregard for this life, Captain Groberg, again, with the assistance of the other member of the security detail, physically pushed the suicide bomber away from the formation.
"Upon falling, the suicide bomber detonated his explosive vest outside
of the perimeter of the formation, killing four members of the formation
and wounding numerous others. The blast from the first suicide bomb
caused the suicide vest of a previously unnoticed second suicide bomber
to detonate prematurely with minimal impact on the formation.
"Captain Groberg’s immediate actions to push the first suicide bomber away from the formation significantly minimized the impact of the coordinated suicide bombers’ attack on the formation, saving the lives of his comrades and several senior leaders."
