Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for further evidentiary development to verify the appellant's late husband's active military service.
The deciding factor: Verification of the late-claimant's active military service is necessary before any service connection can be established, and there is a lack of clarity in the record regarding his claimed service.
