Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for diabetes mellitus type II and erectile dysfunction due to a need for a VA examination.
The deciding factor: A medical opinion is necessary as there is lay evidence of an in-service event or injury along with an indication that the claimed disability may be associated with the established event, injury, or disease in service.
