Remanded (sent back)
The Board of Veterans' Appeals remands the claims for service connection for a recurrent respiratory disability and a recurrent sinus disability, as the Veteran's periods of active duty, active duty for training, and inactive duty for training with both the Army Reserve and the Massachusetts Army National Guard have not been verified and all service medical documentation associated with that duty has not been requested.
The deciding factor: The claim is remanded due to pre-decisional errors in verifying the Veteran's periods of active duty and requesting relevant service treatment records.
