Suppose are subgroups such that is a normal subgroup of and is a join-transitively subnormal subgroup of (in other words, the join of with any subnormal subgroup of is subnormal). Then, is a finite-conjugate-join-closed subnormal subgroup of : a join of finitely many conjugate subgroups of in is again subnormal.

Proof
Hands-on proof
Given: , such that is normal in and is join-transitively subnormal in .
To prove: For any finite set , the subgroup , defined as the join of subgroups , is subnormal in .
Proof:
- Each is join-transitively subnormal in : Conjugation by defines an automorphism of , since is normal in . Thus, each is the image of under an automorphism of . Since automorphism preserve subgroup properties, each is join-transitively subnormal in .
- is subnormal in : Since is a finite set, is the join of finitely many subgroups , each of which is join-transitively subnormal in . By induction, we see that is also join-transitively subnormal in ; in particular, it is subnormal in .
- is subnormal in : Since is subnormal in and is normal in , we obtain that is subnormal in .
Proof using given facts
The proof follows directly by piecing together facts (1) and (2).
