Denied
The appellant's character of discharge from service, which was under other than honorable conditions due to resignation for the good of the service, constitutes a bar to receipt of VA benefits.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the appellant's discharge was not due to insanity and did not meet any exceptions to the statutory bar established by law.
