Navy Seals Who Should Be Deep Sixed

It seems to me that Navy Seals who are openly talking about operational details of a special op are acting in a treasonous manner, should lose their rank, and be court marshaled. Amiright?

Isn’t he retired? In which case it is too late. I think I read the Seals don’t get to sign a binding secrecy declaration like the CIA.

The video is private 🙁

I’ve gotten the rebuttal (“No Easy Op” – an Amazon ebook) but haven’t read it fully yet. Offhand, what was revealed sounds dicey and politically motivated, but possibly not prosecutable (perhaps for political rather than legal reasons).

The video went private?!?!? WTF? That usually happens just before the seals come crashing in through the window.

sailor, that would be Standard Form 312. I think the major legal issue is whether he had the book properly vetted before publishing.

And ya, given the nature of his duties, I’m sure he had to sign one.

As a Navy Veteran who signed agreements similar to the ones this guy did, I cannot but agree. Those agreements have the same force as direct orders, which in my case, forty years later, I would never think of violating, under any circumstances nor for any reward. I cannot imagine any situation in which Naval Special Warfare would allow former personnel to publish a book detailing operational details of an operation, much less one of such import. Disclosing anything, anything at all as to how we operate puts everyone in the community in danger.
