WASHINGTON (AP) — Two soldiers from India have disappeared from a sprawling Marine base, and the U.S. government is helping the Indian government search for them, the State Department said Friday.
Spokesman Sean McCormack said the unidentified Indians disappeared during a training assignment at Camp Pendleton in southern California.
“Our Office of Foreign Missions in Los Angeles received a letter today from the Indian Consulate in San Francisco requesting assistance in liaising with local law enforcement officials about the missing soldiers,” McCormack said in a statement.
The State Department is working with the Defense Department and state and local law enforcement agencies “to provide the Indian government with all the help it needs to locate these individuals,” McCormack said.
