handle is hein.gao/gaobadibu0001 and id is 1 raw text is: .. DECISION FILE: B-19502 MATTER OF: Mrs. Mona Lisa Kasha 1. Widow of deceased member may not be reimbursed transporta- tion expenses incurred when her brother flew from United States to Germany and back to United States to aid her at time of her husband's death since he was not assigned to be the official escort pursu- ant to 10 U.S.C. § 1036 under which an escort may be assigned in extraordinary circumstances. The assignment of an escort and the type of escort is discre- tionary with the service. In this case the service expedi- tiously assigned a military escort who traveled with the widow. 2. No authority exists to pay widow's travel expenses to attend disinterment and rein- terment of husband's remains at a national cemetery even though movement of body was the result of the Government's failure to advise widow of the area where a private grave marker could be used instead of a Government supplied marker. This case concerns whether Mrs. Mona Lisa Kasha may be reimbursed for the expenses of having her brother travel from the United States to Germany to aid her upon the death of her husband, Warrant Officer Richard J. Kasha, USA, and whether Mrs. Kasha may be reimbursed her travel expenses L~ets UfJ koI74 DIGEST: THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON, O.C. 20548 7 DATE: March 12, 1980 Y Lt
