The Navy disciplined 18 Navy SEALs from SEAL Team Four after an investigation revealed a private chat containing racist memes targeting a Black SEAL. Memes included derogatory images and comparisons, prompting swift action from Rear Adm. Milton Sands, who has since been removed from his position. The Black SEAL reported persistent racial harassment and described the removal of his name from plaques as a disgraceful act of hatred. The incident highlights a significant cultural failure within the unit, contradicting its principles of cohesion and honor.
