"Did they ever find the bodies of the two soldiers who fell into the river with full packs on and were swept under the water? "

Yes. There are no more MIAs or Whereabouts and Duty Status Unknowns from this conflict.

Fox news has a complete list on their web site.

Those Marine Seebees didn't fall into the river. Their goal was the enter and wade across the river to achieve an objective.

From what I read, due to the weight of their equipment, they couldn't keep afloat and drowned.

Yes their bodies were recovered.
