The Pentagon official said
Wednesday that the 11 service members are presumed dead and that the
Coast Guard found debris in the water. The official spoke to The
Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the official wasn't
authorized to speak on the record.

the UH-60 Black Hawk from the Army National Guard was reported missing
around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, and crews found debris around 2 a.m.
The

remote swath of beach between Pensacola and Destin. It's owned by the
military and used for test missions.
