PREC 13-94  WITHDRAWN 3/13/2000   Period of Active Service - Effect of Correction of Board Action      Citation: Vet. Aff. Op. Gen Couns. Prec. 13-94, VAOPGCPREC 13-94, 1994

QUESTION PRESENTED:

 

Whether service connection may be established for a disabil­ity incurred following the date on which a veteran was, in fact, discharged from active military duty, where the dis-

charge was subsequently voided and full active-duty credit granted by a Board for Correction of Military Records to a date subsequent to the date on which the disability was incurred.

HELD:

 

 

Service connection may not be established for a disabil-

ity incurred following the date on which a veteran was dis­charged from active military duty, although the discharge was subsequently voided and full active-duty credit granted
by a Board for Correction of Military Records to a date after the date on which injury occurred, because the veteran was not engaged in active service at that time.
