Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter to obtain additional service personnel records and issue an administrative decision regarding the character of the appellant's discharge, which constitutes a bar to payment of VA benefits.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows misconduct or other basis for the award of a discharge under conditions other than honorable during his original enlistment period, thus the exception to a conditional discharge does not apply in this case.
