Obama Marks 9-11 Anniversary at Pentagon

President Obama spoke after laying a wreath at the memorial to the 184 people killed when Islamist militants hijacked a commercial airliner and slammed it into the side of the Defense Department headquarters.
Flowers had been placed on many of the memorial's stone benches, each of which bears the name of one of that day's victims.

Calling the Pentagon "hallowed ground," the president told the families of those who died nine years ago their loved ones will not be forgotten.

"I thought it must seem some days the world has moved on to other things. I say to you today, that your loved ones endure in the heart of our nation now and forever," he said.
