In view of the belated payment by the Department of the Navy of the additional sum of $1800 to meet the lodestar amount awarded, and considering the inconsistencies and lack of clarity in the records provided, we conclude that Petitioner has not met the burden of establishing entitlement to additional recovery for legal services in proceedings before the Board. The decision of the Board is affirmed.
