Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for further development, including obtaining private medical records and additional information regarding the Veteran's employment history.
The deciding factor: Further development is necessary to adequately adjudicate the claims on appeal, as the record indicates that the Veteran has not been able to understand instructions provided by VA to assist in obtaining his private treatment records.
