I just talked to my nephew who is deployed in Afghanistan in the Marines.
He stated they were informed of the raid on Bin Laden a day or two after it happened.
They were told these details:

- 30 members of Seal Team 6 were used. - 'mini choppers' were used. - Bin Laden was taken to the US for DNA testing.

He disputed the notion of Blackhawks or Chinooks being used; wouldn't elaborate on the type(s) of helicopter used. He is also suspicious of the story that Bin Laden is dead; thinks he's alive in US custody.

Doesn't believe he was dumped in the ocean because it doesn't agree with the version of events he was told.


He is just relaying what he was told, not claiming any inside information.
