Written By Unknown on Rabu, 21 Mei 2014 | 23.11

Officials are trying to establish how a US Marine fell from an aircraft during a training exercise.

After a search of almost 24 hours, the body of the serviceman was found on Tuesday on state forestry land about 100 miles south of Raleigh, Bladen County Coroner Hubert Kinlaw said.

Marine Corps spokesman Michael Barton said the Marine, who was a member of the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, appears to have died as a result of the fall.

It was not immediately clear how high the aircraft was or what may have caused him to fall.

More than 100 Marines helped local sheriff's deputies in the search after the Marine fell from an Osprey aircraft on Monday evening about 45 miles west of Marine Corps Air Station New River.

His name has not been released while family members are notified.

Ospreys have two large rotors that tilt forward and skyward, allowing the aircraft to fly at higher speeds than conventional helicopters, while maintaining the ability to conduct vertical take-offs and landings.

The multi-mission aircraft that has been used both in relief efforts, such as in the Philippines in the wake of a devastating typhoon, and in combat operations.
