Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of entitlement to service connection for the cause of the Veteran's death due to a need for further development of his Toxic Exposure Risk Activity (TERA) memorandum.
The deciding factor: Further development is needed to determine the specific toxic substances and level of exposure during the Veteran's in-service duties, as current evidence only infers such exposures without sufficient detail.
