Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a right knee disorder to obtain additional evidence and an adequate medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners' opinions are inadequate due to pre-decisional duty to assist errors, and there is insufficient probative evidence regarding the Veteran's service connection claim.
