The Board has determined that new and material evidence has been submitted to reopen the claim for service connection for peptic ulcer disease, but it is unclear whether this evidence alone or in conjunction with previous evidence establishes a link between the veteran's current condition and his military service.
The deciding factor: New and material evidence was found, but its sufficiency to establish service connection remains uncertain.
