DUPLANTIER, District Judge.

The United States Claims Court decided that this suit for annuity benefits under the Survivor Benefit Plan, 10 U.S.C. §§ 1447-1455 (1982), filed by a widow more than six years after the death of her military retiree husband, is not barred by the statute of limitations, 28 U.S.C. § 2501 (1988), as to benefits which had become due and payable to her within six years prior to her filing suit, on the ground that it is a “continuing” claim. Hart v. United States, 17 Cl.Ct. 481 (1989). The United States appeals that decision. We reverse.
