On August 6, 2026, we mark 15 years since the tragic loss of Extortion 17. On this day in 2011, 30 American servicemen and a U.S. military dog lost their lives when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter—call sign Extortion 17—was shot down in Afghanistan. This event remains the greatest single loss of life for Naval Special Warfare.

Please take a moment and pause to honor and remember these heroes and their families.

SEALs have executed some of the highest-risk, no-fail operations in history. A few have been publicized, but the vast majority remain unknown to the public. Through these clandestine missions, NSW continues to sacrifice for our nation, maintaining its global presence and staying at the ready. They are on the front line, right now and always. We are there to help keep our warriors in the fight.
