Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for anxiety (also claimed as depression and stress) to correct a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error, requiring an examination and opinion.
The deciding factor: A pre-decisional duty-to-assist error exists, necessitating an examination and opinion on whether the Veteran's anxiety was aggravated by active service.
