@ReallyVirtual was Tweeting the events AS it happened (without realizing what was going on)

..... fascinating stuff... (remember, we lost one of our choppers in the mission, troops escaped ok)

Helicopter hovering above Abbottabad at 1AM (is a rare event).

A huge window shaking bang here in Abbottabad Cantt. I hope its not the start of something nasty

Since taliban (probably) don't have helicpoters, and since they're saying it was not "ours", so must be a complicated situation

And now, a plane flying over Abbottabad...

Report from a taxi driver: The army has cordoned off the crash area and is conducting door-to-door search in the surrounding

Uh oh, now I'm the guy who liveblogged the Osama raid without knowing it.

2. Wow.

Of course, this totally throws the time line of this happening a few days ago.

4. SOP if it's not recoverable.

Especially since, officially, we weren't allowed there.

By destroying it, we don't leave as much to reverse-engineer.
