Bodies recovered from crashed chopper in Nepal relief mission
The remains of six U S Marines and two Nepalese soldiers aboard a UH 1 Huey were recovered after a crash during earthquake relief airlift northeast of Kathmandu. The wreckage, located about 15 miles from Charikot in Dolakha, followed days of search. The helicopter was delivering rice and tarps when contact was lost. A total of 300 U S personnel supported the mission as the UN appeals for aid rose to 93 million dollars.
