What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.

- Denied
The appeal seeking reversal or revision of a July 24, 1980, rating decision that adjudicated the claim of service connection for a nervous condition and found conditions and denied service connection for anxiety neurosis, also diagnosed depressive reaction on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE) pursuant to 38 C.F.R. § 3.105, is denied.
- Denied
The Board has denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder other than anxiety neurosis but to include PTSD. The low back disability claim is remanded due to new and relevant evidence being received.
- Granted
The Board has granted the Veteran's motion to revise a March 20, 1972 rating decision that denied service connection for anxiety neurosis with tension headaches. The correct facts at the time of the March 1972 decision showed that there were documented reports of nervousness on active duty and continuity of those symptoms in post-service years, leading to an award of service connection.
