Navy SEAL reveals how he celebrated his return from killing Osama bin Laden with drive through order of Taco Bell



He had just killed one of the most feared terrorists the world has ever seen.



But rather than celebrate in style, the Navy SEAL who shot dead Osama bin Laden had a rather more down to Earth celebratory meal - at Taco Bell.



Matt Bissonnette stopped off at his local branch of the fast food chain in Virginia Beach, Virginia having completed his mission and flown home.

The Navy SEAL Team 6 member who used the pseudonym Mark Owen to write No Easy Day, writes in his book how he celebrated his return from Afghanistan with a drive-thru Taco Bell order that he ate in the parking lot



Opting for drive through rather than a sit-down meal, he sat hunched behind his steering wheel in the car park as he wolfed his food down.

Bissonnette had two tacos at $1.62 each, a bean burrito costing $3.26 and a medium Pepsi at $2, bringing the grand total of his meal to $7.88.

He had just returned from Afghanistan where he and his team had killed the Al Qaeda leader in a mission he wrote about in his controversial account, called No Easy Day.

In the book he writes that on the way home he stopped for his 'fix' of fast food that told him he was finally home, as he had done many times before.



He writes: 'At the window a high school kid handed me my food and drink.



'I pulled into the parking lot and took out a taco.



'I spread the paper in my lap and drizzled some fire sauce over the cold, crisp lettuce and ate.'



Bissonnette finds it hard to adjust given that just days before he was on such a top secret mission.



He writes: 'Now I was eating Taco Bell in a parking lot on my way home.'



Once Bissonnette got home he had a shower and finally relaxed, but for others who were in his unit things were not so laid back.



He writes that one of his friends got so little thanks from his wife that she had him back being a father right away.



Bissonnette said: 'My buddy said when we got back to work: "So I get home and she hands me my kid right away.
