Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of whether the character of the service member's discharge from service is a bar to the receipt of VA compensation benefits due to an inadequate medical opinion and recent changes in law.
The deciding factor: A new medical opinion is needed as the previous one was deemed inadequate, and there have been recent legal amendments affecting this case.
