In those conversations, Trump has discussed his ongoing frustration with Bondi over her handing of the Jeffrey Epstein files and hurdles the Justice Department has encountered in investigations into Trump's perceived enemies, the people said. The Republican president has mentioned other candidates but has raised Zeldin's name as recently as this week, the people said.

The people were not authorized to publicly discuss the private conversations and spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity.

No decision has been announced, and Trump has been known to change his mind on personnel decisions.

Trump says Bondi is a "wonderful person" who is "doing a good job," according to a White House statement.

The disappearance of Christina Marie Plante from Star Valley, a small community in a mountainous area northeast of Phoenix, in 1994 sparked an extensive search that included volunteers, the sheriff's office said.

Although the case went cold, it was never closed, and it was periodically re-reviewed, the sheriff's office said. It was assigned to a cold case unit after the unit was formed.

"Utilizing advances in technology, modern investigative techniques, and detailed case review, detectives developed new leads that ultimately led to a breakthrough," the sheriff's office said in a statement.

The sheriff's office said that out of respect for Plante's privacy, additional details were not being released Wednesday.

When she disappeared on May 16, 1994, she was reported to have last been seen going on foot to a stable where her horse was kept, the sheriff's office said in a missing person poster.

The exercise, according to the 1st Medical Brigade, "is designed to simulate the challenges of providing advanced medical care in a contested, large-scale combat environment."

Between March 23 and April 1, the 1st Medical Brigade employed the tactical arm of the Army Health System. Combat medics, optometrists, doctors, veterinarians and other medical personnel simulated a mass casualty event in combat conditions in underground tunnels on the Fort Hood base.

This week, Fox News got an up-close look at how this training exercise was implemented.

"So the medics have understood that you cannot set up a multi-tent field hospital that occupies four or five, up to 15 acres and provides that world-class care, above ground anymore," said Col. Kamil Sztalkoper, director of public affairs for the III Armored Corps.

Sztalkoper said the shift is driven in part by drone warfare observed in the war inUkraine.

"We have to disperse, number one. And then hide in plain sight, is number two. So dispersing is using multiple different kinds of locations. Hiding in plain sight could be in a building, a warehouse, or here. Using one of our unique training facilities that was designed in the 1940s. Utilized in the 1950s to house nuclear and atomic weapons," Sztalkoper told Fox News.

The tunnels have since been decommissioned and cleaned out for use as a training facility — in this case, an underground field hospital. Sztalkoper said the several miles of tunnels are used as a "triage emergency room, operating room, vet, optometry [and] clinics," allowing troops to avoid what he described as the growing drone threat observed inUkraine.

During this exercise, about 300 soldiers and role players portraying wounded troops ran through different evacuation and medical drills, with soldiers rushing the wounded from a helicopter to a military medical vehicle and then into the tunnels.

Combat medics are then trained to treat wounded soldiers, or, role players. Each of the wounded imitated the pain and symptoms of an injury that could happen on the battlefield.

"Really the dilemma for them is managing how they deal with all of this with what they have," said Col. Brad Franklin, deputy commander of the 1st Medical Brigade.

Franklin, who also serves as a chief nurse, said he has experienced similar challenges in real-world operations.

"Knowing you don't have enough people, you don't have enough surgeons, you don't have enough nurses, don't have enough medics and there's more patients than you can handle," Franklin said. "So it's forcing them to triage, reverse triage and take care of these casualties."

World War Ii Veteran Shares Special Performance

Aside from treatment for soldiers, K-9s and their handlers are also training in this exercise. Further down a dark tunnel, veterinarians work on a simulated wounded K-9, while the handler is being treated for simulated injuries across the room.

Lt. Col. Cynthia Fallness, commander of the 43rd Medical Detachment providing veterinary service support, said the personnel conducting this training are doctoral-level veterinarians.

"In this case, it is a traumatic fracture, a compound fracture of the hind limb. And the dog also has a chest wound and also, is having trouble breathing because there's a traumatic injury to the mouth," Fallness said.

"So these are our diesel dogs," she said of the fake K-9 on the operating table.

Out of the dozens of combat medics training, one medic says his role in the military is more than just a job.

"My grandfather actually served in World War II as a combat medic," William Rothwell, a combat medic with the 1st Medical Brigade, told Fox News. "He went into Normandy, I believe, after the push on Omaha Beach."

Rothwell, a Boston native, never met his grandfather, but heard stories from his father.

"Which was just how brutal it was, how rough it was. Medicine back then wasn't as great. So handling patients was somewhat traumatic."

In this training, Rothwell is getting that real-world medical combat experience before stepping foot on a battlefield.

"The stories of how much he cared and was willing to go, you know, the mile and above to make sure that he can get his brothers home … really touched me," Rothwell said. "So that's kind of how I feel in this situation."

Chelsea was ahead 1-0 on the night but needed another goal at Stamford Bridge, trailing 3-2 on aggregate as the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal second leg entered its final minutes.

Deep into stoppage time, Thompson burst past Arsenal's Katie McCabe, who tugged the American winger down by her hair.

Referee Frida Mia Klarlundto opted not to punish McCabe and VAR did not review the incident. That led to a furious reaction from Bompastor, who was given a red card amid her angry protest.

"For me, it is clearly a red card for the Arsenal player. She's pulling Alyssa Thompson's hair,"Bompastor told the BBCafter the game.

"If the VAR is not able to check that situation, I don't know why we have the VAR. I'm the one getting a red card when I think the Arsenal player should be the one getting a red card."

Defending champion Arsenal hung on to beat Chelsea 3-2 on aggregate and advance to the semifinal.

Thompson was "crying and emotional" after the game, Bompastor added.

"She's trying her best on the pitch in both games and it is not good enough — when you are playing football and someone pulls your hair, it's bad," Bompastor said.

Shortly after the game ended, McCabe posted on Instagram: "I just want to clarify that I was genuinely reaching for the shirt. I wouldn't ever want to pull someone's hair. Full respect to Thompson."

Incredibly, Wednesday was not the first time this season that Thompson has been the victim of a hair pull.

West Hamdefender Inès Belloumou was shown a red cardin a September match for pulling Thompson's hair. It was the U.S. women's national team winger's first start for Chelsea.

Guardians Dodgers Baseball

Gabriel Arias also went deep for the Guardians, who took two of three games in the series from the two-time defending champions.

Williams (1-1) walked three and allowed only two hits, both singles by Andy Pages. Freddie Freeman homered off Cade Smith with two outs in the ninth, spoiling Cleveland's shutout bid.

Williams overpowered the Dodgers from the outset and faced just one batter more than the minimum through five innings. He ran into his only trouble in the sixth when Pages led off with a single and Alex Freeland worked a walk to bring Shohei Ohtani to the plate as the potential go-ahead run.

The 6-foot-6 right-hander induced a grounder from Ohtani on the first pitch for a 4-6-3 double play and got Kyle Tucker to fly out to end the inning.

Williams completed his night with a perfect seventh, punctuated by striking out Will Smith swinging on an elevated 96 mph fastball.

Ohtani also struck out against left-hander Erik Sabrowski with runners at second and third to end the eighth. Ohtani went 0 for 3 with a walk at the plate, extending his on-base streak to a career-best 37 games since last August.

Yamamoto (1-1) pitched six innings, allowing four hits and two runs. He walked one and struck out two.

The loss dampened a historic night for the Dodgers, who became the first team to start a Japanese-born pitcher in three consecutive games. Roki Sasaki took the ball in the series opener andOhtani won the middle game.
