Rob O'Neill was the Navy SEAL who walked up the third-floor stairs in Pakistan and shot Osama bin Laden three times. When he left the military after 16.5 years, the Pentagon gave him $0 in pension. They also cut off his children's healthcare at midnight on the day he signed out. In the video below, O'Neill explains what happened on his final afternoon in uniform. Before boarding the stealth helicopters for the May 2011 raid in Abbottabad, O'Neill and his SEAL Team 6 teammates called their children to say goodbye. None of them expected to survive the night. After the first Black Hawk helicopter crashed inside the courtyard wall, O'Neill followed his point man up the narrow staircase, stepped past the third-floor curtain, and killed the most wanted man in the world at the foot of his bed. Later, O'Neill quietly donated the combat shirt he wore that night to the 9/11 Memorial Museum in New York. Across 16 and a half years in the Navy, O'Neill deployed more than a dozen times across four war zones, fought in over 400 combat missions, and was decorated 52 times, including two Silver Stars and four Bronze Stars with Valor. Under federal military rules, service members only qualify for a retirement pension and lifetime family healthcare if they stay for a full 20 years. Burned out after a decade and a half of nonstop night raids, O'Neill decided to leave three and a half years early before his luck ran out. While signing his final discharge papers, he asked the Navy clerk one question: "Is there a grace period for my kids to have healthcare?" "No," the clerk replied. "It ends tonight at midnight." "It was a point in my life where I would rather go back to war than fill out a resume and put on a suit," O'Neill says. "Because that doesn't make sense to me, but war does." He walked off the base that afternoon with no pension and no medical coverage for his kids, and later went public with his name to make a living speaking. Should the 20-year pension rule apply to everyone without exception, or did the man who killed bin Laden earn his benefits three years early?
