The U.S. intelligence community wheeled out one of its prized possessions Wednesday -- a scale model of the notorious Pakistan compound where Usama bin Laden spent the last few years of his life in hiding.

The model made its public debut in one of the Pentagon's busiest hallways, drawing the attention of gawkers and passers-by. It was built in six weeks by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and used by military and intelligence leaders to plan the daring nighttime raid on May 2, 2010, that killed the Al Qaeda leader.

And this model is not short on detail.
