Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a left leg disability and low back disability as further development is needed to provide an adequate medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not establish a direct link between the Veteran's in-service injuries and current disabilities, necessitating a VA examination.
