Man That Killed Bin Laden Coming To Alabama To Campaign For Fellow Seal—Jeff Still

Jeff Still, a former Navy Seal, is running for the Alabama State Senate in District 7 and he’s kicking off his campaign with an appearance from fellow retired Seal “Rob” O’Neill.

On Wednesday, October 11, 2017, O’Neill is coming to Huntsville to help his former Seal buddy, Jeff Still. Those who sign-up to host the event can attend a VIP reception to meet O’Neill before the campaign kick-off begins.
