Leaders in tears: Clinton and Laura Bush weep amid emotional Bush tribute as a nation begins ceremonies to remember 9/11
By Mark Duell Last updated at 7:17 AM on 11th September 2011 George W. Bush has praised the 40 passengers and crew who fought back against their Flight 93 hijackers on 9/11 for carrying out what he described as one of the most courageous acts in U.S. history. The former president was at a ceremony on Saturday dedicating a memorial at the nation's newest national park in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, as the U.S. marks the 10th anniversary of the terror attacks. Americans will also come together on Sunday where the World Trade Center soared in Manhattan, New York, and in Washington D.C. where the Pentagon now stands as a fortress once breached.

The nation's focus will turn on Sunday to ceremonies at the Pentagon and in lower Manhattan for the dedication of the national September 11 memorial. President Barack Obama planned to attend ceremonies at both sites, as well as the Pennsylvania memorial, and was scheduled to speak at a Sunday evening service at the Kennedy Center. The New York ceremony begins at 8:30am local time, with a moment of silence 16 minutes later - coinciding with the exact time when the first tower of the World Trade Centre was struck by a hijacked jet.
