U.S. Pacific Fleet commander Admiral Scott Swift said divers had discovered some remains aboard the USS John S. McCain after it had collided with a petroleum tanker near Singapore on Monday.
Admiral Swift told reporters at Singapore’s Changi Naval Base on Tuesday that it was premature to say how many bodies had been found. He confirmed that the Malaysian navy had discovered one body which was being transferred to Singapore for identification.
