Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the issues regarding the veteran's discharge character and service connection for psychiatric disorders and dental surgery problems. The Board needs more information to decide.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the appellant's personnel records are incomplete and a pre-decisional duty to assist error has occurred, which should be corrected by obtaining these records on remand.
