The body of the second of two US soldiers who went missing during a military exercise in Morocco has been recovered and identified, the US Army said.

A joint US-Moroccan recovery team found Specialist Mariyah Collington, 19, in a coastal cave about 500 meters from where both soldiers entered the ocean, the army said in a statement Wednesday. The body of First Lieutenant Kendrick Lamont Key Jr., who went missing at the same time, was recovered May 9.
