00:00.700 --> 00:01.842
^- Welcome to All Hands Update.

00:01.842 --> 00:04.288
^This is your week in Navy history.

00:04.288 --> 00:06.909
^On May 2nd, 2011, President Barack Obama

00:06.909 --> 00:10.050
announced SEAL Team Six raided Osama Bin Laden's compound

00:10.050 --> 00:11.556
in Abbottabad, Pakistan,

00:11.556 --> 00:13.444
and killed America's most wanted terrorist

00:13.444 --> 00:15.547
during Operation Neptune Spear.

00:15.547 --> 00:18.468
This ended the decade-long manhunt for the Al-Qaeda leader,

00:18.468 --> 00:21.838
and man behind the September 11th attacks.

00:21.838 --> 00:23.095
^The Battle of Coral Sea took place

00:23.095 --> 00:26.095
^between May 4th and May 8th of 1942.

00:26.607 --> 00:29.191
This was the first battle conducted solely by aircraft,

00:29.191 --> 00:31.849
where the carriers never saw each other.

00:31.849 --> 00:33.708
This battle generated much needed confidence

00:33.708 --> 00:34.871
for the allied forces,

00:34.871 --> 00:37.329
only four months after the attack on Pearl Harbor,

00:37.329 --> 00:40.444
and was the start of a new era of naval warfare.

00:40.444 --> 00:42.000
