Bells toll as the names of nearly 3,000 people killed at New York's World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 terror attack are read aloud at Ground Zero Friday, the 14th anniversary of the terror attack.

This is a new video of the 9-11 Memorial Room at the New York City Fire Museum:

Observances of the 14th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks are also being held at the Pentagon and in the field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where hundreds of others died in hijacked plane crashes.

President Obama will visit Fort Meade, Maryland, to recognize the military's work to protect the United States.

Organizers of New York's Ground Zero ceremony have taken steps to keep the focus on reflection and not politics by not including politicians in the name readers, although elected officials will be allowed to attend.
