The U.S. Navy has identified two SEALs who went missing at sea off the coast of Somalia and are now presumed dead.

Navy Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Christopher J. Chambers, 37, and Navy Special Warfare Operator 2nd Class Nathan Gage Ingram, 27, were reported missing after a risky nighttime mission on January 11.

As authorities have officially called off the search and rescue mission, details are emerging about the SEALs final moments.

According to reports, both men, who were apart of U.S. Navy’s SEAL Team 3, were attempting to board an unflagged boat carrying Iranian-made missile parts to Yemen.

While Ingram began climbing the ladder onto the boat, he slipped and fell into the rough waters. Chambers immediately jumped in to rescue him, but a combination of their heavy body armor, equipment, weapons, and the rough seas proved to be a disaster.

Both Chambers and Ingram were lost at sea.
