Barack Obama and wife Michelle Obama traveled to Oslo, Norway for the president to receive the Nobel Peace Prize on Thursday.
In his acceptance speech he acknowledged, "I am the Commander in Chief…in the midst of two wars." In an effort to achieve peace and prevent attacks, Obama defended his decision to deploy additional troops.
He said, "The belief that peace is desirable is rarely enough to achieve it…Peace entails sacrifice." The president explained that the troops are honored as "wagers of peace."
Hollywood even made a presence at the special occasion. Will Smith and wife Jada Pinkett-Smith brought daughter Willow to witness this historical moment.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced on October 9 that Obama would be the 2009 recipient of the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize. This makes him only the third sitting president to be bestowed with the honor.
