The MOD (UK) were paying for a Naval Reserve Ship and crew in Wick (Scotland) for many years before it cam to light that the 'ship' was a holed wreck sunk in the Harbour!

It happens in the UK too with pensions being claimed by the relatives of the dead... It's been going on for many years.

Yes, widows in the UK get pensions from all aspects of companies and goverment offices.



My grandfather died working for the electricity company, he left a wife and two young children. Yes they got a pension / money for this. In later years when the kids had grown up my grandmother had to pay tax on that pension, even when she came of pension age herself.



So i don't think we have the right to judge without knowing all the facts.
