Memorial service today at Fort Hood

FORT HOOD, Texas - President Barack Obama and his wife today will join grieving families and comrades of the victims of the Fort Hood massacre.

A memorial service is planned at Fort Hood, where last Thursday a gunman opened fire -- killing 13 people and wounding 29.

The suspect, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, was shot by police and remains hospitalized under guard in San Antonio. Hasan, who's awake and talking to doctors, met his lawyer yesterday.

Investigators say the Army psychiatrist is believed to have acted alone despite repeated communications - intercepted by authorities - with a radical imam overseas.

Officials say Hasan will face charges in a military court. His attorney says he's assured Hasan that all of his rights as a defendant in the military justice system will be respected.
