The Canadian Forces says remains recovered in the search for five missing service members off the coast of Greece can't yet be identified.
The search for survivors after a maritime helicopter crashed in the Mediterranean Sea formally ended today.
The commander of the navy's maritime command, Rear Admiral Craig Baines, told reporters in Halifax today, ``This decision was not taken lightly.''
Six military personnel were aboard the helicopter when it went down Wednesday as it was returning to the Halifax-based frigate, HMCS Fredericton.
