But his comrades left and realised he had died until his body was found on November 12.
Now, Army chiefs are braced for the findings of a report into the death at the Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich, South-East London.
Police say his death is unexplained.
A source said: “This is a shocking event. How did it take so long to realise where he was?
“It raises some very serious questions surrounding welfare.”
The Army declined to comment while a coroner was still investigating.
