The Veteran in this case served on active duty from August 1967 to July 1970. 2. On August 9, 2018, prior to the promulgation of a decision in the appeal, the Board received notification from the Veteran that a withdrawal of this appeal is requested. CONCLUSION OF LAW The criteria for withdrawal of appeals by the Veteran have been met. 38 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(2), (d)(5) (2012); 38 C.F.R. § 20.204 (2018). REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION The Veteran had honorable active duty service with the United States Army from August 1967 to July 1970. The Board may dismiss any appeal which fails to allege specific error of fact or law in the determination being appealed. 38 U.S.C. § 7105 (2012). An appeal may be withdrawn as to any or all issues involved in the appeal at any time before the Board promulgates a decision. 38 C.F.R. § 20.204 (2018). Withdrawal may be made by the veteran or by his or her authorized representative. 38 C.F.R. § 20.204. In the present case, the Veteran has withdrawn this appeal in an August 2018 correspondence and, hence, there remain no allegations of errors of fact or law for appellate consideration. Specifically, the Veteran indicated that he “WOULD LIKE TO WITHDRAW ANY PENDING APPEALS BEFORE THE BOARD…”. Accordingly, the Board does not have jurisdiction to review the appeal and it is dismissed.
