Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to service connection for a lumbar spine disability and numbness of the bilateral lower extremities, as additional development is needed.
The deciding factor: The directives of the Board's remand were not substantially complied with due to incomplete record requests from Madigan Army Medical Center and other relevant records not being considered by the RO.
