French President Francois Hollande will present three young Americans and a British man with the country's top Legion d'Honneur medal at a ceremony tomorrow in recognition of their bravery after they overpowered a gunman on a packed Thalys train, an Elysee source said.
A French citizen who also tackled the suspected jihadist but who wishes to remain anonymous will receive the honour at a later date, as will a Franco-American passenger who was hit by a bullet and is recovering in hospital, the source told AFP.
