The Navy spent $102,000 to bring to Honolulu the families of nine men and boys killed when their Japanese fishing vessel was hit and sunk Feb. 9 by the nuclear attack submarine Greeneville during a training drill.
Each of the nine families was told the Navy would pay for as many as five family members. The Navy has paid for 36 airline tickets and hotels for as many as eight nights. Each family also was given $100 phone cards.
