Navy divers recovered the remains of one sailor killed in the tragedy, 22-year-old electronics technician 3rd class Kenneth Aaron Smith, of New Jersey, in the ship’s flooded compartments. A multinational search, including assistance from Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia, was conducted over more than 80 hours and covered about 2,100 square-miles after the destroyer collided with a commercial vessel.

“U.S. Navy and Marine Corps divers will continue search and recovery efforts inside flooded compartments in the ship for the missing Sailors,” the Navy said after announcing the suspension of rescue efforts at sea.

The Royal Malaysian Navy has already located one body at sea, and Navy officials are trying to determine if it is one of the missing sailors. Divers have also reportedly located other bodies. Monday’s collision is the fourth suffered by the 7th Fleet this year and was the second fatal collision. The commander of the fleet, Vice Admiral Joseph Aucoin, was relieved of his duties this week.
