Actually, its perfectly possible for a small remote robotic device to be sent in to a given location
The Pentagon on Friday mistakenly posted a video it claimed had been recovered from a recent anti-terror raid in Yemen that had actually been recovered nearly decade ago.
The Defense Department had uploaded footage of a Jihadist training video purported to have been seized as part of a raid on an al Qaeda compound in Yemen in late January.
That action – which was President Trump’s first counter-terrorism offensive – killed more than a dozen of terrorists, but also claimed the life of one Navy SEAL. Civilians, including children, were also reportedly killed.
The military has since removed the footage from its video distribution website, acknowledging that it was captured during a previous raid in Yemen in 2007.

Trump gave a wonderful tribute to Ryan Owens last night. It was seen around the world, and the reaction of Ryan's mother will be long remembered. There does not seem to be any animosity towards Trump at all.
Strange how you conflate a widows grief with supporting Trump?
Strike that...Just what I would expect...
This whole thread looks like it based on fake news.
Please provide evidence showing that Ryan Owens father did not make the public statements he made.
Absent that...You are clearly lying again.

...., like the mother. She seems to have taken the lead role in expressing how the family feel, and her attendance with Ivanka Trump last night speaks volumes.

Even the fathers comments reflect only understandable grief.

It is amateur hour in the Trump Administration...It will cost lives..
It is no Mystery when the current head of Spec Ops says this..
US Special Ops chief: US government 'in unbelievable turmoil'
www.cnn.com...
JSoc operates outside the traditional chain of command; it reports directly to the president of the United States. In the words of Wired magazine: "JSoc operates with practically no accountability." Scahill calls JSoc the president's "paramilitary". Its budget, which may be in the billions, is secret.

While the president is technically the commander in chief of the military, he is a civilian. He is not in uniform. He does not plan ops. In any war there are bound to be casualties. Unless they only use drones.

Does that let Hillary off the hook for Benghazi?

I realize weak people have difficulty handling grief but somone should tell this guy he is dishonorong his dead son's service greatly.
It is likely due to leaks from Obama's left-behinds, particularly those Paki brothers in IT who tipped off the terrorists.

The Navy Seal Foundation keeps a running list of Seals that have been killed in action.
During Pres. Obama's 8 years in office, the Seals that died were in active combat theaters (Iraq and Afghanistan) and not on Spec Op missions Specifically directed and approved by the President.
Not to say Pres. Obama did not utilize Seals in non-active theaters like Africa...he used them more than any President in history, mostly in hostage rescue operations and once to kill a guy named Osama Bin Laden. But he never lost a Seal where the WH directly proposed and gave the "go" on the mission. That is because he was fanatical about planning and vetting risks before giving the go. Long and multiple conversations with Joint Chiefs and the National Security Counsel et al. Trump gave the go over dinner. Just sayin..
