SEAL Team Six

SEAL Team Six is the military unit that was deployed to capture or kill Osama bin Laden. The secretive organization’s official name operated under the authority of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group or DEVGRU (Navy Development Group). “SEAL” stands for “Sea Air Land” special operations. When it was first established, there were only two teams. They called one of them “Six” to make the Soviets think they had six teams instead of just two. After the failed mission to rescue hostages held in Iran in 1980, the Navy saw a need for a special force capable of executing risky and urgent missions. SEAL Team Six was tasked with hostage rescue and infiltrating enemy nations, ships and military bases. The work of the secretive SEAL Team Six is assisted by intelligence and other support personnel.
