US EditionNavy SEAL Team 4 Members Disciplined for Racist Conduct Targeting Black Sailor
- In 2025, disciplinary measures will be taken against a pair of enlisted personnel from Navy SEAL Team 4 for producing and distributing racist memes aimed at a Black sailor within their unit.
- The investigation followed a complaint made this year by the sailor after memes, some depicting him as a slave, circulated in a group chat since 2022.
- Naval Special Warfare Group 2 and an East Coast team found platoon leaders failed to address the sailor's concerns and that revoking his SEAL qualifications was flawed.
- Timothy Parlatore, representing the sailor, described the situation as a disturbing instance of frequent and overtly racist messages, while the NSW Command confirmed that investigations are underway and that measures to ensure accountability are in progress.
- The actions include disciplining the meme creators and several leaders for leadership failures, and reinstating the sailor’s SEAL qualifications amid broader racial issues in special warfare units.
