Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter to obtain records and a medical opinion regarding whether the Veteran's discharge was due to insanity at the time of the offenses leading to his other than honorable discharge.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary to obtain a medical opinion regarding the Veteran's mental state at the time of his misconduct, as no such opinion was obtained previously.
