Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a right knee disability, left knee disability, and diverticulitis for additional development, including obtaining an adequate VA opinion regarding the etiology of each claimed disability.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary because VA has not obtained an adequate VA opinion regarding the etiology of the Veteran's claimed disabilities of the right and left knee and diverticulitis.
