The Coast Guard is investigating after a swastika was found drawn on a bathroom wall at the Coast Guard's training center in Cape May, New Jersey.

A spokesperson said Tuesday that the "hate symbol was immediately removed" and the Coast Guard Investigative Service was notified.

"The Coast Guard has always unequivocally condemned and punished the display of hate symbols or imagery associated with intimidation, hatred, or oppression," the Coast Guard said. "Such conduct is incompatible with our core values and has absolutely no place within our Service. We are committed to maintaining a workplace that is safe, professional and respectful for every member of our workforce. Any behavior that undermines these standards will be addressed swiftly and seriously."
