LARAMORE, Judge
(concurring).
I agree with the majority opinion. I write this because of my concurrence in the case of Goldwasser v. United States, Ct.Cl., No. 477-61, 325 F.2d 722.
In my opinion, the Goldwasser case is clearly distinguishable from the present case. The contract in the case of Goldwasser was, in my opinion, terminated for default. In that situation my belief is that plaintiff Goldwasser should have an opportunity to prove a breach thereof and resulting damages, if any.
The contract in the instant case was not terminated for default, and I believe under the circumstances of this case the correct measure of damages should be based on the cost resulting from the termination provision of the contract.
