A sailor was found dead Monday at the Navy’s Training Support Center Great Lakes in Illinois, officials confirmed Wednesday.

The sailor’s name was being withheld pending next-of-kin notification, according to center spokesman Matt Mogle.

He was found just before 6 a.m. Monday in his barracks room, Mogle said.

The sailor was attending fire controlman school.

Agents from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service are probing the death, according to Mogle.
