He was identified today. Do you think he's a marked man? Does he have a target on his back? Should he be concerned?

"The former Navy SEAL who claims to have shot and killed Osama bin Laden has been identified ahead of a highly anticipated Fox News interview in which he is expected to discuss his role in the historic raid, according to multiple news sources.
Robert O’Neill, a SEAL turned public speaker, has been named by the UK’s Daily Mail and the special operations community blog SOFrep.com as the member of SEAL Team 6 who fired the shots that killed bin Laden in a May 2011 raid on his compound in Abottabad, Pakistan."

I guess the assumption of "Quiet Professional" goes out the window with every book sale or memoir that a member of any elite force writes nowadays.

Marked is not dead, but we can be certain that someone wants a word with him about his "no easy day." I am curious to his reasoning for 'outing' himself - according to Fox, has stated reasons are to aid veterans and 9/11 families. Does it bring closure to know who killed UBL? Not for me. Anyone else?

UNSUNG HEROES: The 77 People On The Bin Laden Raid Who Are Staying Quiet
79 men launched the raid to kill bin Laden. 79 of thousands who worked for more than a decade to find him. Two have stepped forward.

Not sure why someone would expose themselves and family to so much risk. I like his father's attitude but reckless abandon often leads to less than desired results. As I can not say for sure what motivated this I would not be surprised to see movie, book rights, and public speaking in his near future as well as years of sprinkling colored sand around his vehicle.

I think it is reprehensible for this patriot’s identity to be leaked so that whacko radical Muslims can seek revenge on this hero and/or his family. I feel whomever leaked his identity should be held accountable!

Unverified claim. And I doubt we will know the real shooter for sure in our lifetime. In any case, I will wait for the movie or book he helps make. Because it seems that is what all former SEALs do these days.
