Remanded (sent back)
The Board denied the claims for earlier effective dates and remanded several service connection claims.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an earlier effective date or a grant of service connection for the claimed conditions within the one-year period preceding the receipt of the claim, and further development was needed to verify the Veteran's dates of active duty.
