president and her husband. they are being met by the chairman of the joint chief, general milley defense secretary quite often. this is the third stop for the president. what's notable is the president released a video message to the 9/11 families of survivors of those who were lost in the attacks last night. he's not spoken today and did not speak at any of the sites. he did like reefs at all sites. the message from other speakers, president bush speaking, one of unity and desire for unity we saw after 9/11 and one of the things president bush talked about was he believes the next attack would be a domestic terrorist attack and he's very concerned about divisions right now in the country. vice president harris spoke and then you have the images of president biden and former

president clinton and obama near the world trade center and the attacks 20 years ago. we are here at the pentagon, we sat through a very emotional service earlier this morning. watched as the flight was uncurled at dawn over the spot where american airlines flight 77 crashed into the west side of the pentagon. right now the wreath they are going to lay will be at the place of impact. also there's a very beautiful memorial to the 184 people who were killed that day. pensions you can visit at night lit up her face the direction of the building. i was here ten years ago when they inaugurated that memorial and its truly breathtaking particularly at night. jon: you mentioned the defense secretary of the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff will take

part in this wreath laying from i am remembering the astounding images of been defense secretary participating in the evacuation of the damaged section of the pentagon, helping people get out about terrible burning inferno going on in the pentagon that day corporate we heard how been defense secretary donald defied orders from those around him and went back into the building to save lives that day. i think security who try to keep him from going back in, he did go back and. i spoke this week to those who survived who were inside the building at the moment of impact. one person in particular describes how they crawled out on their knees through the smoke, they thought they would die where they were looking at a

computer at the time and the next day to.to the middle east and having been in the fight for the next 20 years, there were intricately involved in the program that became part of the warfare the last 20 years. i spoke to who remains -- lopez who is the senior enlisted advisor to the chairman of the joint chief, he was a rescue tier one operator 9/11 happened. he deployed immediately to afghanistan and he told me about how he escorted the president into kabul even saving his life and very emotional and angry for our 20 years ago to see the taliban having returned to kabul. he had a strong message because the last chapter has been very painful, don't let that defined the last 20 years.

jennifer griffin is still outside the pentagon and it appears the president will continue what you mentioned earlier, not making remarks, anticipating he's present but he's apparently not planning to say anything. >> i think from what we are seeing, he's going to let the images speak for themselves. solemn moment and remember, he traveled to three locations and by the time he got here to the pentagon, the survivors and their families had already left because they had been here for a ceremony at 9:03 a.m. and at the moment of impact, the plaintiff at building, the defense chief and there was beautiful amazing grace in the song. i think they are letting the images speak right now, there

are no longer any family members over there at the memorial site where the president is right now. remember the security threat is still very high particularly in the wake of the pullout from afghanistan and we don't know what decisions may have been made as a result of security considerations today. jon: our national security correspondent, jennifer, thank you. forty passengers and crew members died when united flight 93 crashed what had been a cold mind in pennsylvania. memorial is an amazing place, i urge you to visit it if you have the opportunity. brian is there right now for us. reporter: good afternoon, the crash site is sacred ground to families and friends of the 33 passengers and seven crew members on board flight 93. you can see 1710 that marks the

skies and remember. >> on the morning of september 11, having heard about the attacks through phone calls on the plane), 40 stranger board the flight data to attack the hijackers in the effort to regain control the plane which was believed to be headed toward capitol. we spoke to united 93 and we spoke to family united 93, lorraine bay was. >> the one thing i know is 37 years, they had a lot of experience she's doing everything she could put training to comfort and people need about here are to me i usually feel better when i come because this is the last place he was.

>> flight 93 is 18 minutes from washington d.c. when terrorists purposely crashed the plane into the ground because they knew the passengers and crew were about to regain control of that plane. their heroism save hundreds, if not thousands of lives and i agree with you, this national memorial is taking and i encourage everybody to come, it's my first time and it's incredibly moving. jon: it's a little bit out of the way but place everybody ought to see. thank you. twenty years and four administrations later, post 9/11 war against terror persists. peter doocy live with a look back on u.s. strategy in the last few decades for the biden administration and now president biden still has to deal with al qaeda. earlier today he said he does

not seek the fight in afghanistan anymore. >> if you told anybody we were going to spend $300 million a day for 20 years to try to unite the country after we got bin laden, after al qaeda was wiped out there, it's already back other places. strategy. they're going to invade and have troops there? no. reporter: the president remains at the pentagon right now and comments earlier that you heard are in line talking about pre-recorded messages about 9/11 he believes last night concerning unity. >> i thought president bush made a good speech today. genuinely good speech about who

we are. who we are is not divided. reporter: on 9/11 2001 when then senator biden got off the amtrak train from delaware at union station, he says he stepped outside and chrissy smoke rising from the pentagon. today's last stop on his itinerary is back there. jon: we understand the president might still be on the pentagon, he and his -- still participating in the replay or i guess you'd call it after section of the replay, he still there outside the pentagon. he's talking general milley -- i'm sorry chairman of the joint

chiefs of staff. as we can, general milley made headlines when he seemed to suggest our jennifer griffin leaving afghanistan he felt was going to lead to the rise of more terror organizations and potentially more problems for the united states. i imagine the white house is not too keen on what the general white house is arguing and keep terror or prevent them from forming united states. over the horizon. basically when using modern technology we didn't have in 2000 even, i think they can spy on these guys and take them out from far away. there are a lot of questions whether we are able to think

this is an time such say think they can keep the home and safe by continuing to sink far away. jon: peter, thanks for remembering the sacrifice from hundreds of rescue and recovery workers, so many with serious health issues risking their lives on 9/11.
