Military families arrive at Fort Hood ceremony

November 10, 2009

FORT HOOD, Texas -- Hundreds of military families and civilians are arriving at Fort Hood, Texas, where victims of last week's shooting spree will be honored.

Some were wearing red, white and blue ribbons to the Tuesday ceremony where President Barack Obama was scheduled to speak later.

Sheila Wormuth, whose husband is stationed at Fort Hood, brought her 3-year-old daughter to the memorial service to show their support. She says her husband wasn't at the shooting site Thursday, but "what happens to my husband's brothers and sisters happens to us."

The site of the ceremony is a field on the massive post cordoned off with walls of steel shipping containers.

The soldier suspected in the shootings that left 13 people dead and 29 wounded remains hospitalized with gunshot wounds.
