The Navy SEAL who raised nearly $750,000 from a community of supporters to successfully fight war crimes charges in a San Diego court-martial is again asking for the public’s help for one more round with the Navy.
Chief Eddie Gallagher, through an attorney, is asking the public to help him convince a Navy admiral to reduce his jury-imposed punishment for posing with the body of a dead Islamic State fighter in 2017.
Specifically, he’s looking for other service members who have received punishment for taking photos with dead enemy combatants — and received a lesser sentence.
