Considering how open this guy was with his side job I would be very surprised if no one in his chain command knew what he was doing:
A decorated Navy SEAL is under investigation for taking orders on porn sets.
The military is investigating Navy Chief Special Warfare Officer Joseph John Schmidt III for appearing in more than 29 adult films in the last seven years, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported on Friday.
Schmidt, 42, has served for more than 23 years in the military, but has allegedly found time to moonlight as a porn star under the name Jay Voom.
Schmidt has shared the most screen time with his wife, porn star Jewels Jade, but he has also appeared with X-rated actresses Mena Li and Ashden Wells. His portfolio includes titles such as “Apple Smashing Lap Dance” and “Strippers Come Home Horny From the Club.”
The military is looking into whether Schmidt violated a rule that prohibits Navy SEALs from doing other work without their commanders’ approval. [NY Post]
You can read the rest at the link, but Schmidt’s wife claims she got back into porn after giving it up to be a mother because of financial difficulties. She recruited her husband to help her out in order to not have to pay a male to participate in the films with her. Schmidt was was actually only a few months from retiring before this thing blew up in his face. It will be interesting to see if the Navy tries to take any rank away from him before retiring.
