    Default The mission to get Bin Laden - Off topic but a must read

    Not exactly on topic but this article published in the New Yorker blew me away.

    http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2...The+New+Yorker

    Ok, to make it somewhater relevent, it notes that at least three of the SEALs in the operation to kill Bin Laden participated in the sniper operation that freed Richard Phillips, the captain of the Maersk Alabama.

    I call BS on the article. But they have a good imagination.
    If you hear me yell "Eject,"Eject Eject. the last two will be echos. If you stop to ask why? you'll be talking to yourself, because by then you'll be the Pilot
