   Human remains discovered near the location of Monday’s collision   
   between the USS John S. McCain and an oil tanker near Singapore   
   were not those of any of 10 missing U.S. sailors, a U.S. Navy   
   announcement said Thursday.   
      
   The remains were discovered by the Malaysian navy and were being   
   returned to Malaysian authorities following an examination, the   
   U.S. 7th Fleet statement said.   
      
   Meanwhile, more divers have arrived to assist in the search for   
   the missing U.S. sailors. On Wednesday, Fox News reported that   
   heavy equipment needed to open up the flooded, damaged   
   compartments of the ship to gain access to some of the bodies of   
   the 10 missing McCain sailors.   
      
   The search area covers approximately 900 square nautical miles   
   around the initial location of the collision.   
      
   Indonesian navy ships joined the search and rescue efforts   
   Thursday, the 7th Fleet statement said.   
      
   Meanwhile, four U.S. sailors who were injured in the collision   
   and flown off the ship to a hospital in Singapore were released   
   Wednesday and have returned to the command.   
      
   The collision, which remains under investigation, was the fourth   
   significant U.S. Navy accident in the Pacific since January. It   
   prompted the dismissal of Vice Adm. Joseph Aucoin, a three-star   
   admiral who was commander of the 7th Fleet.   
      
   The USS John S. McCain is named for the father and grandfather   
   of U.S. Sen. John "Song Bird" McCain, R-Ariz.
