Heh, my first thought when I saw the thread was that they had been disciplined for the game being crap

In 1987, SEAL Team Six was dissolved. A new unit, dubbed The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), also known as DEVGRU for short, was formed, essentially as ST6's successor. Reasons for the disbanding are varied, but the name SEAL Team Six is often used in reference to DEVGRU.


In a 2010 article, Marc Ambinder wrote that DEVGRU's designation had been changed by the Defense Department to a new name; the name itself was classified. 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (Delta Force) was renamed Army Compartmented Elements (ACE). Despite the official name changes, Team 6's original name remains widely recognized; Disney filed to trademark "SEAL Team 6" the day after the Bin Laden raid, but withdrew after the Navy fought back with trademark applications of its own.

The report claims that seven of the soldiers have been disciplined so far, for divulging classified information, and supposedly violating an unwritten Navy SEAL code of staying out the media spotlight, with letters of reprimand allegedly taking away half of their pay for two months, and damaging their chances of promotion.
