Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's overpayment debt is due to concurrent receipt of active service pay for a period of 4 drill days in FY 2014. The issue is whether the Veteran was paid for these 4 days, not if he attended drill training exercises.
The deciding factor: Remand required to obtain evidence regarding whether the Veteran was paid for 4 days of active service pay in FY 2014.

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.
