A Whidbey Island Naval officer, missing since May 26, has now been labeled a deserter. Whidbey Island Naval Air Station spokeswoman Kimberly Martin said Tuesday that paperwork has been filed on 31-year-old U.S. Lieutenant junior grade Jennifer Kincaid.The Navy believes Kincaid is out of the country, possibly in Canada, since her car was seen crossing the border at Blaine a day after she was reported missing. Martin said Kincaid will remain a deserter until she is found or turns herself in. She could face charges for desertion.
Kincaid was commissioned into the Navy three years ago and had been stationed at Whidbey Island.
