The Board remands the claims for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD and a sleep disorder due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary to address whether the Veteran's diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder was caused or aggravated by an in-service event, disease, or injury, as well as to determine if any of the Veteran's mental health symptoms may be related to or caused or aggravated by his service-connected ADHD.
