Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for various conditions, including an acquired psychiatric disorder and radiculopathies of multiple extremities, due to insufficient evidence and the need for additional development.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to missing private treatment records and the need to verify in-service stressors related to the Veteran's claimed psychiatric condition.
