Mims was reported missing on June 8 as the guided-missile cruiser was conducting routine operations in Okinawa, Japan.

Mims was found in the ship’s engineering spaces a week later and turned himself in to shipmates, Navy times reports.

The ongoing investigation is expected to conclude by late summer.

Mims enlisted in the Navy in February 2014 and reported to the Shiloh in August of that year.
