That is a good tool for researching (BVA) Board of Veterans' Appeals Decisions. However, I'm pretty sure that claim citations that didn't go all the way to an appeal hearing at the BVA won't show up using that tool. If a claim was approved by a DRO at a local hearing at a Regional Office or was approved at a Regional Office without a hearing and therefore didn't need an appeal those citations won't show up using that tool. I'm pretty sure that's right.
I'm aware of several guys who won their claims that weren't in appeal and therefore didn't go to a BVA hearing for a ruling. Citations for those claims aren't found searching using that tool or by searching the internet unless the vet posts them. They're not public unless he makes them public. Claim citations that went to BVA appear to be more public.
