The U.S. Navy has taken administrative actions against three current or former senior staffers in the sudden February death of SEAL candidate and Seaman Kyle Mullen, officials announced Wednesday.

The Naval Special Warfare Command announced Wednesday, more than eight months after Mullen's sudden death, that Mullen died from acute pneumonia, with a contributing factor of an enlarged heart.

The agency also described how Mullen was in possession of performance-enhancing drugs but noted that such substances did not contribute to his death.

Officials ruled that Mullen’s death was "in the line of duty, not due to his own misconduct." Navy SEAL candidate Kyle Mullen is seen in these photos provided by his family.
