What ever happened to Dan Briggs?

Most hardcore fans of the series know why Steven Hill was fired from the series. My question is: what happened to Dan Briggs, the character? The Geller formula was never to explain very much, and to leave it to the viewers' imagination to fill in the blanks.
My imagination is this: in the Spring of 1967 the big build-up in Vietnam was taking place. Briggs was moved there, where his skills were put into action to help the war effort. Other thoughts and scenarios?

Dan Briggs witnessed government corruption in the IMF? I was thought that it was Corruption in the CIA in Mission Impossible 3!

As a matter of fact, Luther explains to Elsa (and the audience) why Julia and Ethan got divorced in Mission Impossible Fallout.

Is it me, or did anyone else think that Michele Monahan and Rebecca Ferguson look alike?

So by that logic he will probably cast as his next leading lady someone who looks like Katie Holmes.

In the opening scene of the Pilot, Guy's Voice On The Record says to Briggs: "Glad that you're back, Dan. It's been a while."
