CHICAGO (CBS)-- Monday marks 22 years since the September 11th terrorist attacks. There are events and ceremonies taking place in the Chicago area and across the country to remember and pay tribute to the lives lost. At ground zero, the tolling of bells marked the moment the first twin tower was struck. A 9/11 commemoration ceremony was held at what's now the National September 11th Memorial and Museum in New York City. The Chicago area is paying tribute to the victims. At 7:46 a.m. there was a moment of silence led by Aurora Fire Chief Dave McCabe Bagpipes and a full service of military honors set the tone.
