The remains of a U.S. Army soldier who went missing during military exercises in Morocco a week ago have been recovered in the Atlantic Ocean, the U.S. military said Sunday.
The soldier, whose name has not been released pending notification of next of kin, disappeared during training operations off the coast of Morocco. Search efforts involving U.S. and Moroccan forces located the remains in the Atlantic Ocean.
The incident occurred during routine military exercises, and the cause of death is under investigation. The U.S. military expressed condolences to the soldier's family and thanked Moroccan authorities for their assistance in the search.
