Military teams have found the location of a sunken amphibious assault vehicle (AAV) off the coast of San Clemente Island in Southern California after several military members died in a training accident Thursday. Officials are in the process of recovering the AAV, Lieutenant Biran Tuthill of the Marine Expeditionary Force said in a press release.
Human remains have also been located using underwater remotely-operated video systems, the Navy said.
"The Navy has expedited the movement of assets to recover the remains of the Marines and Sailor, as well as raise the AAV," the press release said. "The equipment to properly and safely perform the recovery from the sea floor will be in place at the end of this week, and a dignified transfer of our Marines and Sailor will occur as soon as possible after the conclusion of recovery operations."
