President Barack Obama, seeking to bring some closure to the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil after the killing of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, laid a wreath at New York’s “Ground Zero” and honored those whose lives were sacrificed.

Obama’s stop at the Sept. 11 memorial was his first visit to the former World Trade Center site as president. He talked with emergency workers and met privately with some of the family members of those who died in the attack. Tomorrow, he’ll meet with some of the special operations forces involved in the Pakistan raid that killed bin Laden, two administration officials said.
