Navy SEAL training plagued by pervasive problems and unrecognized risks.

A Navy investigation into the death of a SEAL candidate during "Hell Week" found that the selection course had become dangerous due to lax oversight and medical care, leading to injuries, hospitalizations, and the use of performance enhancing drugs. The investigation identified "failures across multiple systems" and "a degree of complacency and insufficient attentiveness" to safety. The Navy has committed to implementing the investigation's recommendations, including better oversight of course instructors and more thorough medical screenings. Some Navy personnel could face "potential accountability actions."
