On the Marine FaceBook page they are saying they recovered three bodies (comment section)

U.S. Marine Corps
Efforts underway to recover the six Marines and two Nepalese soldiers who were aboard the missing UH-1Y Huey that was located Friday in Nepal.

“We are deeply saddened by the discovery of this wreckage and we will remain dedicated to the recovery effort until every last Marine and Nepalese soldier is brought home. While we mourn the tragic passing of our service members and of the Nepalese Army, we recognize that the Nepalese people have suffered a loss of thousands of their own citizens. We will continue to stand with Nepal.”

— Lt. Gen. John Wissler, JTF 505 commander and III Marine Expeditionary Force/Marine Corps Installations Pacific commanding general

THe Nepalese death toll is already over 8,000 and I wouldn’t be surprised if it tops 10,000, especially with more deaths from major aftershocks.
