The SEAL team was given the green light by a CIA analyst with the pseudonym “Jen” who was “the main force” behind tracking bin Laden to Abbottabad, the Pakistani town that is also home to the country’s premiere military academy. Before the SEAL team was launched, Bissonnette writes, this analyst told them that “she was one hundred percent certain that [bin Laden] was there.”
“This was her baby,” Bissonnette writes. “Jen and her team spent five years tracking [bin Laden] to get us to where we are now. We were just there to finish the job."
A woman from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency “took care of the maps and satellite images for us,” Bissonnette writes. “She provided any detail – big or small.”
