Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for a skin disability to ensure compliance with previous remand instructions, specifically regarding potential exposures to herbicide agents and other toxic substances at Fort McClellan.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that another remand is necessary due to the RO's failure to fully investigate the Veteran's claimed exposures in accordance with prior directives.
