Navy Seal Exposed -- Literally -- For Being A Porn Star

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) —  During the day, he proudly wears the uniform of a Navy Seal.

At night, Chief Special Warfare Officer Joseph Schmidt III, 42, wears decidedly less clothing.

Officials say the decorated military man is a porn actor with nearly 30 films under his belt. Make that his resume.

Schmidt is a 23-year veteran based in Coronado. His porn career has been going on a little more than seven years, about a third of the time he was serving the military.

According to the San Diego Union-Tribune, Schmidt works under the nom-de-porn of Jay Voom.

Schmidt's wife is also a well-known adult-film actress. She works under the name of Jewels Jade.

The Naval Special Warfare command is launching an investigation.
