1Opinion of the Court
STEINBERG, Associate Judge, filed the opinion of the Court.
STEINBERG, Associate Judge:
Because this opinion overrules a portion of Sawyer v. Derwinski, 1 Vet.App. 130, 135 (1991), this case has been presented to the full Court for en banc consideration. See Bethea v. Derwinski, 2 Vet.App. 252, 254, (1992) (“only the en banc Court may overturn a panel decision”).
In an earlier opinion in this case, dated January 24, 1992, the Court vacated the decision of the Board of Veterans’ Appeals (BVA or Board) and remanded the record for readjudication. Douglas v. Derwinski, 2 Vet.App. 103 (1992)…
