Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disability, to include anxiety and depression, due to incomplete service treatment records and the need for a new medical opinion.
The deciding factor: Remand is required to obtain another medical opinion as the previous one relied on the absence of documentation in the service treatment records which are now recognized as incomplete.
