US servicemen under spotlight for sharing nude photos of their female colleagues online

US servicemen under spotlight for sharing nude photos of their female colleagues online

The Pentagon has pledged a full investigation into a nude photo scandal hitting the American armed forces.

Defence Secretary James Mattis said "all appropriate action" was being taken in all branches of the armed forces.

The scandal began when nude photos of female Marines were published online by male colleagues.

But fewer than 10 female Marines have come forward to make a formal complaint.

The scandal initially broke when current and former members of the US Marines were discovered sharing naked photos of female servicewomen on Facebook, in a group called "Marines United".

It reportedly had over 30,000 members before being shut down.
