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.

- Dismissed
The Board has dismissed the appeals for service connection due to the Veteran's death.
- Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for residuals of a nose injury, finding that there is no current disability and the evidence does not support an in-service injury.
- Granted
The Board has reopened the claims for service connection for a neck disorder, residuals of a nose injury, and a bilateral foot disorder due to new evidence received since the April 1994 rating decision. The claims are granted.
