A US Navy SEAL training commander in charge of a "Hell Week" boot camp where a 24-year-old man died has hit back at a grieving recruits mum who claims "you murdered him."
Kyle Mullen, from Manalapan, New Jersey, US, died during an intensive program after swimming in cold waters and developing pulmonary edema, which caused his lungs to be filled with fluid and gave him pneumonia, according to an autopsy.
During a five-and-a-half day stretch in which SEAL candidates are allowed just four hours of sleep each night, after running more than 200 miles in the ocean, and complete physical training for more than 20 hours per day.
