The Navy confirmed marijuana traces in six of 14 sailors killed in the Nimitz crash but said the sextet had no role in the landing. Congress and the military pursue tougher drug control as autopsies show nonprescription drug use among servicemen. The Navy plans increased detection and arrests with less rehab while Pentagon spending nears 100 million dollars yearly on prevention.
