DETROIT — The bodies of two U.S. soldiers missing in Iraq for more than a year have been found, their families said Thursday.
The father of Army Sgt. Alex R. Jimenez of Lawrence, Mass., said the military told him that the remains of his son were identified in Iraq.
The stepfather of Army Pfc. Byron W. Fouty of Waterford, Mich., said the soldier's remains also were found there.
Jimenez, 25, and Fouty, 19, were kidnapped along with a third member of the 2nd Brigade Combat Team of the 10th Mountain Division during an ambush in May 2007. The body of the third soldier, Pfc. Joseph J. Anzack Jr. of Torrance, was found in the Euphrates River days later.
