APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 30 Sep 11, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to
applicant for review and comment within 30 days. To date, a
response has not been received (Exhibit C).
_________________________________________________________________
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:
We have carefully reviewed the applicants submission and the
evidence of record and do not find a sufficient basis to excuse
the untimely filing of this application. The applicant did not
file within three years after the alleged error or injustice was
discovered as required by Title 10, United States Code, Section
1552 and Air Force Instruction 36-2603, Air Force Board for
Correction of Military Records. The applicant has not shown a
plausible reason for the delay in filing, and we are not
persuaded that the record raises issues of error or injustice
which require resolution on the merits. Thus, we cannot conclude
it would be in the interest of justice to excuse the untimely
filing of this application.
________________________________________________________________
DECISION OF THE BOARD:
The application was not timely filed and it would not be in the
interest of justice to waive the untimeliness. It is the
decision of the Board, therefore, to reject the application as
untimely.

At the time of her husband’s death, his promotion and other military honors were still being processed.
