   Niggers can't drive and the fucking Marine Corps let one drive   
   an AAV - in the water.   
      
   The Marine amphibious assault vehicle that sank off the Southern   
   California coast while carrying eight Marines and a Navy   
   corpsman during a training exercise last week was found with   
   human remains after an intensive search effort, the military   
   said Tuesday.   
      
   The landing craft sank 385 feet after taking on water during a   
   ship-to-shore maneuver off the coast of San Clemente Island on   
   Thursday. The Marines and the sailor were heading back to their   
   ship when the vessel sunk.   
      
   The  Marines and the corpsman were had been presumed dead after   
   they had been missing for more than 40 hours. The Navy Undersea   
   Rescue Command confirmed the remains through the use of an   
   underwater remote-controlled video system.   
      
   The Navy is working to recover the bodies of the service members   
   and the assault vehicle. The Navy is deploying the necessary   
   equipment to recover the bodies and the assault vehicle from the   
   seafloor.   
      
   The servicemen were identified as:   
      
   Lance Cpl. Guillermo S. Perez, 20, of New Braunfels, Texas.   
   Pfc. Bryan J. Baltierra, 19, of Corona, California.   
   Lance Cpl. Marco A. Barranco, 21, of Montebello, California.   
   Pfc. Evan A. Bath, 19, of Oak Creek, Wisconsin.   
   U.S. Navy Hospitalman Christopher Gnem, 22, of Stockton,   
   California.   
   Pfc. Jack Ryan Ostrovsky, 21, of Bend, Oregon.   
   Cpl. Wesley A. Rodd, 23, of Harris, Texas.   
   Lance Cpl. Chase D. Sweetwood, 19, of Portland, Oregon.   
   Cpl. Cesar A. Villanueva, 21, of Riverside, California.   
      
   The men on board were based out of Camp Pendleton, just north of   
   San Diego. They were all wearing combat gear, including body   
   armor, flotation vests when the craft sank.   
      
   The vehicle, known as an AAV, or “amtrac” for “amphibious   
   tractor,” is used to take Marines and their gear from Navy ships   
   to land.   
      
   No cause has been determined for how the craft sunk.
