The 7th Fleet said Friday that Navy and Marine Corps divers recovered and identified remains of 26-year-old Electronics Technician 3rd Class Dustin Louis Doyon on Thursday night. He is from Connecticut.
More divers and equipment arrived overnight to continue the search inside flooded compartments of the ship for eight others still missing.
