Naval oops

Yahoo has an article by Reuters about finding our dead:

Pacific Fleet Commander Admiral Scott Swift said on Tuesday that divers have found human remains inside the USS John S. McCain, which collided with a merchant vessel this week. "The divers were able to locate some remains in those sealed compartments during their search today", Swift told reporters at Singapore's Changi Naval Base, where the damaged vessel is docked. Swift also said the Navy was working to identify a body, found by the Malaysian Navy, to see if it was one of ten sailors missing in the accident. 
The USS John S. McCain and the tanker Alnic MC collided on Monday while the American ship was nearing Singapore on a routine port call. The impact tore a hole (photo) in the warship's port side at the waterline, flooding compartments that included a crew sleeping area. 
Rico says the courts martial have yet to begin...
