The US Navy launched search and recovery operations after the Marine was reported missing shortly after 1 a.m. Thursday.<\/p>\n

The Marine was assigned to the USS Anchorage during training with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit and the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group, according to CBS8.<\/p>\n

After approximately 43 hours of search and rescue efforts, the Navy shifted to recovery operations at 9 p.m. Friday.<\/p>\n

Personnel from the US Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Air Force participated in the search. Officials said crews searched approximately 2,400 square miles using three surface ships and 12 aircraft.<\/p>\n
