EP 256: Exclusive SOFREP Interview with Navy SEAL Team Six UBL Shooter Robert O’Neill

For the first time, Robert O’Neill, best known for Operation Neptune Spear, the raid which resulted in the killing of Osama Bin Laden, sits down with fellow SEAL Brandon Webb for an exclusive in-studio interview. We get into everything with Rob, from his wanting to join the Marines and being swayed by a recruiter to join the SEALs despite a lack of any background in swimming to his involvement in Operation Red Wings, which helped to save Marcus Luttrell as told in “Lone Survivor.” Of course, we also hear the details of what went through Rob’s head before, during, and after the Bin Laden raid, and some of the zen warrior focus one must have in these moments of extreme tension.

Jack Murphy hosts this episode and gives you a very legit US Army Ranger/Green Beret’s perspective on ISIS in Iraq.
