Seals are great, but are still human (i.e. not perfect). I wonder how the pilot of the downed secret stealth copter (the tail section of which is now surely on its way to China) feels after clipping the wall of the Osama compound and dropping it. It seems inexplicable that they didn't destroy the tail section along with the rest of the chopper. This, unfortunately, was a major F-up in what was otherwise a very successful mission.
