The United States is training the Navy SEALs who killed Osama bin Laden and preparing for scenarios of a possible Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
The Navy's elite Special Forces team, tasked with some of the military's most sensitive and complex missions, has been training for more than a year at Dam Neck, and in Virginia Beach, about 250 km southeast of Washington, DC. The secretive exercise underscores the increased U.S. focus on deterring China from attacking Taiwan.
