Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an adequate medical opinion to determine if the Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder is related to his active service.
The deciding factor: The June 2022 VA medical opinion was inadequate as it lacked analysis and merely recited the veteran's reported symptoms and lay statements.
