The US Navy Seal commando who fired the shots which killed Al-Qaeda chief Osama Bin Laden is to reveal his identity in a Fox News television documentary next month.
In a press
release Friday, the network said it will air reveal the commando's name in the documentary dubbed as "The Man Who Killed Osama Bin Laden" slated to go on air between
November 11-12.
The program would also offer a look at a "secret" ceremony in
which the commando donated the shirt he was wearing during the mission
to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York City, it
said.
Fox News television stated that the
Navy SEAL "will share his story of training to be a member of America's
elite fighting force and explain his involvement in Operation Neptune
Spear, the mission that killed Bin Laden,"
The daring nighttime raid on May 2, 2011 saw a
team of Navy SEALs in Blackhawk helicopters swooping on Bin Laden's
hideout in Abbottabad.
There were no casualties among US forces, who killed Bin Laden and four others at the compound.
The operation was ordered by President Barack Obama after the CIA traced Bin Laden's courier to the high-walled compound.
