Pentagon unveils scale model of bin Laden compound

A set of images released by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency show a scale model of the compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, where Osama bin Laden was killed.

The model was built by the agency and used by military and intelligence leaders to plan the raid. The once-classified model is an exact 1 inch to 7 feet and each object in the model existed at one time at the original compound.
