Granted
The Board granted the claim for a replacement government-furnished bronze flat marker to ensure that both the Veteran and his spouse are identified at their shared gravesite.
The deciding factor: The criteria for eligibility for a replacement government-furnished headstone or marker have been met due to the unmarked grave of the Veteran's spouse being buried in the same site as the Veteran, who was previously provided a government-furnished headstone or marker.
